Ronaldo and Messi might not win the Ballon d'Or

#1 Change is good

Death and change are the only two certainties in life. While we are aware of the concept of death and acknowledge it to be an undeniable fact of life, we find it very hard to come to terms with it.

That is exactly the case for change as well. Everything changes. Change is what caused a single-celled organism to evolve and become the most sophisticated species the world has ever seen.

Change might be seen in a bad light but in most cases, it is good because change will always continue happening.

For 10 years, football fans have had the privilege of witnessing Messi and Ronaldo above and ahead of the rest. But over the last few years, it has gotten boring and, to an extent, excruciating because in the years that others deserved more than the duo, they were still handed the award.

So, this change is good; this will bring in the new dawn and take us back to the beginning.
