More on change:
I was reading something on the theme of change. I'm bringing it here as it was very nicely put.
The main function of 'now' is to attract one's attention to what truly matters, i.e. the moment at hand or - contemporaneity. A moderately good relationship with change is an acquired reaction. 'Now' is all we have and if now is pregnant with change then you friggin' handle it. Idealizing the past and projecting too optimistically onto the future does not help anyone.
One thing that is useful when dealing with utter novelty is to fuse it with already familiar and comfort-informed things. Armed with familiarity and comfort, no change is too hard to conquer.

In nuce, it's not change that's hard but rather constancy. It's difficult to keep pace with constancy. Its gruesome at times and it requires constant work to keep. Change provides a bit of a breather, a chance to view things from another perspective and point of view. If it weren't for change, the processing of ideas and any life experience would be hard to accomplish.
