“Change Is Life” Wallpaper

Change Is Life - Wallpaper

Honestly, when I started working on this wallpaper this morning I didn’t even think about today being Friday the 13th. I wasn’t trying to be creepy! But this great quote by Leonard Sweet is a great reminder that change is an essential part of both our physical and spiritual lives. We need it to thrive and grow.

Without change we become stagnant and die. As Leonard says, “It’s that simple. It’s that scary.”

    Well done, mate. Will go into service shortly…once this After Effects project finishes rendering. Hey, at some point (and maybe I’ve already missed this somewhere), you let us know the tools you use and the way you go about your designs. I’m always up for a tip or trick I didn’t already know…

    @Brook – Actually I’ve been thinking of breaking down one of my projects into an online tutorial. I just haven’t had time to do it yet. If you have any specific questions on any of my stuff (font, stock photos, layer effects) just let me know. I’d be happy to help.

    @MikePaschal – Thanks man! I look forward to working with Jesse, I’m sure it’s going to turn out awesome.

    @AdamGarland – Go with this one…it’s cooler. Although to us designers the newest thing we’ve done is always the coolest thing ever until a week goes by and then we hate it. *sigh*

    @BradCooper – I’m always here to inspire! :-)

    Hi. I just stopped by to thank you for visiting and for your comment. I was wondering to myself, “hmmm…I wonder how he found me”. Now that I’m here I am going to make a guess that it HAS to be from Without Wax? Am I right? I guess I’m judging, aren’t I? Oh well….

    WOW!

    And I like the quote.

    “It’s that simple. It’s that scary.”

    Many of the things that happen in life, like change, like loving, are really simple, yet many of us really find them scary. :-)

    I love your wallpaper. I have lived this quote! I sometimes hated it but it is so true. A friend of mine once told me “You have to be uncomfortable in order to grow.” That goes along with this sentiment. And you know what? We HATE to change and we hate to be uncomfortable.
