The reality that is happening in the world globally today is experiencing turbulence, so the impact is that many things are changing rapidly (volatality), uncertainty (uncertainty), complex (complexity) and often confusing (ambiguity). Today we see the emergence of strange phenomena that we never imagined would be present before, namely changes that are visible and very significant affect the way of life and the mindset of humans as a whole. The current global education world is facing the so-called technology and information gap between digital immigrants (old teachers who learn technology) and digital natives (students who enjoy and use technology), while there are still teachers who are currently quite stuttering in dealing with students or students who speak technology. These old teachers often find it difficult to change the teaching and learning paradigm, find it difficult to adjust to the latest trends in teaching and digital-based learning media that are developing fast, feel threatened by technology, and feel confused to change. Ideally, teachers should be willing and able to change their mindset, they are old and will soon retire. Teachers must be willing to be open to changing times because teachers are real lifelong learners. Teachers are role models and agents of life change. Keywords: Globalization, Teacher, Volatality, Uncertainty, Complexity, Ambiguity

There is a reason why the phrases "love and loss" appear so frequently in mourning literature. Love and loss are two sides of the same coin; when we choose one, we open the door to the possibility of the other (Kosminsky & Jordan, 2016, p. 53). It is hardly surprising, therefore, that some similarities arise in how we establish attachment relationships and react to them throughout detachment and reattachment. Each person we love is unique, regardless of how many close relationships we have or with whom we have them. As a result, mourning for that person is a oneof-a-kind experience when the time comes. However, these universal sentiments share certain characteristics, which provide a framework for comprehending loss (Shear In Neimeyer, 2016, p. 14). Loss is an inevitable part of life and development. This may sound paradoxical, but the truth is that new life, change, and forward progress can only occur through losing (changing) an old lifestyle, behaviour pattern, or other aspects of the status quo (Walter & McCoyd, 2009, p. 1). Grief and mourning are the terms we hear the most in the current condition of transition to the new normal during Covid-19 circumstances, whether it is the loss of a person or an object. Recognising necessity, the authors endeavoured to conduct a review study on grief and associated concepts such as attachment, love, loss, mourning and bereavement from various perspectives. Finally, a personal experience is shared to make the study more impactful. By breaking the notion down into its core components, the current study provides everyone interested in exploring grief with a methodical overview as well as a rm understanding of the concept. Those seeking further information in the original literature will nd detailed references included.

This paper analyses the issue of the internal secularisation of religion, which can occur on many different levels (privatization of religious life, change in the universe of meaning, the adaptation of religion to contemporary culture, lacking sensitivity to the "sacrum", the primacy of politics over religion). Three currently important manifestations of the internal secularisation of religion have been analysed. The first manifestation is the secularisation of the consciousness of believers, the second is the excessive institutionalisation and bureaucratisation of religion and the third is the domination of secular (auxiliary) functions over typically religious (essential) functions.

Abstract Background Walking is a simple activity that could help to reduce the prevalence of chronic diseases in all populations. Furthermore, an inverse dose-response relationship exists between steps taken and risk of premature death and cardiovascular events in middle-aged and older adults. There is a lack of information on how to effectively engage older adults around retirement age in walking. This qualitative study explored attitudes towards walking in older people with regard to habits, intensity, preferences and strategies for increasing walking behaviour. Methods In-depth qualitative interviews were conducted with 26 older adults who were either close to retirement or recently retired. An inductive thematic analysis was conducted. Results Three themes were identified from the data; 1) Engagement and perceived value of walking; was focused on the meaning of walking for the participant and the attributes they associate with their walking practice. 2) Integration and connectivity of walking; was focused on how participants integrate walking in their daily lives and whether walking can be practiced as a viable means of connectivity. 3) Strategies to increase walking; was focused on what factors motivate participants in their walking practice and what strategies they perceived to be beneficial to increase walking distance and intensity at an individual level. Discussion The views of walking in people of retirement age were represented within 3 key themes. The factors contained in these themes that may influence future walking practice are discussed with regard to future strategies to promote walking in the retirement life change. Conclusion It may be beneficial to promote qualitative aspects of walking practice and strive for regularity rather than intensity of walking to accrue the social, psychological and intellectual benefits reported by individuals in the retirement life change.

Education is important for the current global changes. Education leads human beings to grow in knowledge as well.  Charles A. Tidwel says, “Persons have an inherent capacity for growing and developing physically, intellectually, emotionally, and morally.” Furthermore, Tidwell emphasizes that human being is created by God as an intelligent being.  Human beings are intelligent people and they will grow in their knowledge according to what they have learned in their life. They learn from what they have seen and heard, then will lead them into a change. To live means to change. Therefore, change is the essence of life. Change is inescapable and the Church today experience the change of the society.

In Belgium, lockdown measures were taken to counter the spread of COVID-19. This major life-change event may disrupt a person's daily routine and influence health behaviors. Although measures were restrictive, citizens were encouraged to engage in physical activity (PA) behavior in order to maintain well-being. Social support specific to PA (SSPA) had been highlighted as an important psychosocial factor in initiating and/or maintaining active behavior. The main aims of this study were to explore the influence of COVID-19 lockdown on PA and sedentary behavior, and on SSPA from family and from friends; and investigate the potential differences in terms of professional status. An online survey was distributed during the 1st weeks of the lockdown. A total of 272 Belgian adults responded to the survey. The findings show no significant difference between prior to and during lockdown with regard to the amount of PA. The results show a significant increase in sedentary behavior among the entire sample, workers and retirees. The findings also suggest that the support of other individuals is particularly useful for certain population groups such as retirees. Given the importance of the levels of PA and sedentariness as health behaviors preceding a major life-change event such as a lockdown, there is a need to promote these health behaviors during normal life in order for the population to remain active throughout their lifespan.

Objectives: This study’s primary aim was to investigate whether meaning-based attitudes to life change during inpatient psychosomatic treatment and the factors influencing the extent of this change. Method: This prospective study ( N = 138) was designed as a naturalistic observation. The effectiveness of treatment was investigated through pre–post comparisons of clinical variables and life attitudes (Life Attitude Profile–Revised) using bivariate tests. Factors influencing the extent of changes in life attitudes were investigated using multivariate regression models. Results: Regarding clinical variables, a small but significant improvement in life attitudes was found, with effect sizes ranging from 0.19 to 0.58. Neuroticism correlated negatively with life attitudes at admission but not significantly with the extent of change in life attitudes. In multivariate models, the extent of the therapeutic relationship and neuroticism correlated positively with the extent of improvement in coherence and self-efficacy. The improvement in self-efficacy was associated with an improvement in life attitudes. Discussion: Although life attitudes are robust characteristics of a person, they change during a hospital psychosomatic treatment, similar to the clinical improvement of symptoms. However, the association between the two is weak. People with stronger neuroticism experience a greater increase in life meaning during hospitalization.
