Well Marsha
You admit that the clay changes from soft and malleable to firm and stable AND still in a constant state of changeing.
Do you understand that there is a change? The physical pattern changes into another, OK?

Before (when soft and malleable) and after a firing (when firm and stable), the clay is still in a constant state of changing. In other words, both before and after the firing, the clay or teapot is ever-changing. So once again I suggest that you might take a few minutes everyday to take an introspective look:
