A higher vantage point
I learned that the stories we tell ourselves are powerful. They can dictate our thoughts, words, actions. Our past does help shape us but does not define us. We can change the narrative we tell ourselves and therefore change the narrative we tell others. Words are powerful. They should be used wisely. We all make mistakes with our words, what’s important is that we learn from those mistakes so that we can be molded into a better, more loving, productive human being.
