Change is always good. Discuss.

I'm writing an essay on this and i'm kinda stuck.

What i have so far is my intro:

Change is a deviation, a transformation from the original state. As it was said by Heraclitus, "Nothing is constant except change." It is ever present and inherent in our world. That much is certain. However, what remains to be seen is if change is always good. Proponents for change argue that change is necessary. It is essential in order to remain relevant and to survive in today's competitive world. "He who rejects change is the architect of decay," said Harold Wilson. However, people are generally inclined to reject change. There exists in us a primordial fear of the unknown, which is brought about by change. As such, humans are quick to reject change and condemn it, labeling those that work for them as good change and those that do not as bad change. However, change is always good so long as it affects society as a whole, positively and allows for progress and development.

I don't know how to continue.

I was thinking of bring up the point on how change, either an improvement on the current or a complete overhaul, is good so long as it adheres to the original aim/intention/purpose. Also, i considered how change in order to correct an injustice is also always a good change.

totally lost and out of ideas (more of my ideas are all over the place and i can't organize them at all)

Yes, that is a good theme... people need to focus on their intended outcome while change is taking place.

There exists in us a primordial fear of the unknown, which is brought about by change. ---I like this sentence!!!

However, change is always good so long as it affects society as a whole, positively and allows for progress and development.----- Well... this might be an oversimplification. And it might not have any meaning, because it says, "Change is good as long as it is positive." That is like saying, "Change is good as long as it is good."

I would add to your argument how people are affected by even bad change. Even when things are bad, people will force themselves to do what is necessary, to look on the bright side. What about when there is disease or death? How is that good? Maybe you could explain it in terms of helping people grow stronger and become tougher so they live through whatever is happening. What about loss of job, especially in this economy? Maybe this is good because it teaches you to survive, because you might find something better?

Basically change when it's bad becomes good when it improves and strengthens us as people.

Good luck!
