Investigate



I truly believe that
  • you can't change the past
  • you cannot go back and undo what was once done
  • you cannot go back & pull years back into line
  • there are no do overs
  • there are only start-overs
  • that beauty lies all around us
  • that you have to allow yourself to see it
  • that if you've come from a bad experience & made it through to the other side
  • that you have to live each new day in appreciation & glory
  • that if you hold onto the past, that is where you will stay
  • that if you refuse to grow into the future, the future will go on without you
  • that if you don't want to try anything new, you will become old
  • that if you don't ever trust, you will never be free
  • that if you don't love yourself, you will never be able to love another
  • that if you allow words to define you
  • unless they are positive words - you will become them
  • that if you don't investigate your inner self & be fully present in each moment of your life
  • that you are merely waiting to die
