We are what we are, this I see as truth. Yet it also seems we are also what we have not yet become. Is it not valid to say, some day we will be old ?The fact is we are old, it is just a matter of what degree. In each second forward we grow and change. Today I am a student, Tomorrow I could be a vagrant, a villain, a hero, a nobody. What we are is not the real question, it is who we are going to be. I wish, Instead of knowing who I am now - I could know Who I will be tomorrow or in 5 years. What a gift that could be, what a blessing. Yet in another moments reflection I have realized that I am content with the present, uninterested in the past, and hopeful of the future. I once had a teacher who believed in the power of 3, which is what you send out into the cosmos ("world") will be revisited upon you three-fold. So I hope if I send out this positive message it will come back to me somehow. LOVE YOU, EXCEPT YOU, BE YOU. Become the person you know you are now! As apposed to tomorrow, or 5 years, because we are what we are. . .

You are you! Don't doubt it for one second, you are all that is good and kind and you are understanding of others shortcomings. You understand we are all different ages of wisdom no matter our earthly years. Keep teaching wonderful teacher, I am learning, i am guessing others are as well!
ReplyDeleteI think that is a good goal and true no matter what. However there are things, events that can and do happen that leave their mark on each of us and change at least how we think because every day we are learning from the many and varied events in our lives that all form who we become. I am not exactly the same person I was a year ago let alone five years ago. I have learned that lives paths can be changed in a split second and loved ones can die unexpetedly as well as wonderful acts of kindness love and generosity can be bestoade upon me when I least expect them and definetely help arrives if I ask for it. At the core I still am the same person I have always been with little and big changes here and there so yes be who you will always be no matter what!You are who you are!
