It is impossible to change a person's character or behavior


People seldom change. It is virtually impossible to change a person's decades of thickened character or behavior.

A single counseling session or a few word of advice cannot change a person's years of hardened habits.

If you think that by marrying someone, you can change a person's character or behavior, forget it.

Some women think that by marrying a guy, they could slowly change his smoking habits. Boy, are they in for a big surprise. Their husbands may not smoke in front of them but they will still smoke behind their backs.

What does it take to change a person? It takes a big tragedy or death or an encounter with the Almighty  to move a person towards change. The death of a love one, the loss of a limb , the loss of almost everything in a fire etc are events that would really shake a person to his core and change him.

If everything is ok, why should he change?
