Five Years by Corbett Barr (Day 8) #trust30

There will be an agreement in whatever variety of actions, so they be each honest and natural in their hour. – Ralph Waldo Emerson

What would you say to the person you were five years ago? What will you say to the person you’ll be in five years?

 

To the person I was five years ago:

 

You lived your life the best that you could with the knowledge that you had, but you had to discover who you were underneath the mask.  It was time to move forward.

 “There exists an obvious fact that seems utterly moral:  Namely, that a man is always a prey to his truths.  Once he has admitted them, he cannot free himself from them.~~Albert Camus

To the person I will be in five years:

“Action may not always bring happiness.  But there is no happiness without action.”

AND…

“There is no education like adversity.”

~~Benjamin Disraeli
