Impermanence creates life
Thich Nhat Hanh refers to how all things are impermanent and when we do not accept this, we suffer. He goes on to explain how change or impermanence is essential for all life….
“Thanks to impermanence, everything is possible. Life itself is possible. If a grain of corn is not impermanent, it can never be transformed into a stalk of corn. If the stalk were not impermanent, it could never provide us with the ear of corn we eat.” ― Thich Nhat Hanh.
With impermanence of one life, new life can emerge. In my life, impermanence has created new opportunities, new understanding and evolving relationships. People I have lost, have made me more aware of how wonderful life is. Impermanence creates 'sliding doors' moments, where change occurs by chance. As Thich Nhat Hanh says, if we do not accept impermanence and crave permanence, we inevitably suffer. All things change, all things pass and we exist because of this.
"Whatever the present moment contains, accept it as if you had chosen it.” - Eckhart Tolle
There is lots written about the Buddhist view of impermanence, expressed far better than I can. This is a helpful article.... Embracing impermanence
