Thursday Night Thoughts

“No story is the same to us after a lapse of time; or rather we who read it
are no longer the same interpreters.” 
 George Eliot

Life has a way of giving us perspective. It teaches us through time, through change, through what remains. And what remains?
You. Everywhere you go, there you are.

It seems so simple. But upon deeper contemplation, I hope you find the same comfort that I found. There is one thing that remains constant in the turmoil of life- you always have you. We continue to grow and change with each sunrise, with each breath. We look back and realize that not long ago, we viewed the world through different eyes. 

One thing is clear. Stories of  the past mark important moments of our lives. But the second hand never stops, its rhythm is constant. And just as time moves forward, so do we. Keep an eye on the future, keep focus on the present, and enjoy the wisdom that develops from lessons of yesterday. 

But yesterday is yesterday, and we are not who we were yesterday. 

So be who you are today with who is here today.
