“When pondering how the past affected us, we rarely look for OUR effect on it. We think about what we were up against versus what we stood for. We remember what we feared but not what we dreamed. We ponder how much we were loved versus how much we loved. We think, why did all that happen to me? What did I get out of it? Where will it lead me? When perhaps we should wonder, what did I make happen? What did I give? Where will I direct myself now?”

“Isn't it interesting how we often fight who we truly are, what we truly want and that which we truly deserve?”

“Its interesting how our baggage influences our vision. I wonder how often we see things for what they really are.”
