<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are so many reasons to embrace this change, so much to look forward to, so many new, happy memories to create. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just as there were many \u2018firsts\u2019 in your old home, so will there be many \u2018firsts\u2019 in your new home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, you probably feel sad at moving away from what is familiar and that is only natural. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You created friends and comforts in your old home, but there is absolutely no reason why your new home should not offer you the same opportunities, and far more besides. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And without experiencing sadness, how will you know that you are experiencing such happiness in your new home?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Embrace your sadness about moving away and have a cry if you must, but then wipe those tears away and open your mind to the joy that awaits you in your new home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Do you remember the immortal words of Ian Drury? <strong><em>Reasons to be Cheerful, 1-2-3<\/em><\/strong> (is
