How The Grinch Stole Christmas! ~ Dr. Seuss

“Pursue some path, however narrow and crooked, in which you can walk with love and reverence.”

— Henry David Thoreau

“For what it’s worth: It’s never too late to be whoever you want to be. I hope you live a life you’re proud of, and if you find that you’re not, i hope you have the strength to start over.”

— F. Scott Fitzgerald

Up the mountain path, Breathing in crisp morning air. Nature's peace found here.

Don’t hold the younger you to the standards you hold yourself to today. You didn’t know as much. You were in a different headspace, with different things affecting and scaring you, facing challenges that seemed big at the time. Maybe you were even lonelier. What’s important is that you know better now, and you know more now. That’s something to move forward with, not something to curse the past with.

The wound is the place where the Light enters you.
