Don't judge people on who they used to be. Allow them to be who they are. See them "now". Not "then".
— I give the truths of to-morrow.
— I prefer the mistakes of to-day.
The only thing we really have is nowness, is now.
Translated from the Russian by Kathleen Cook
Everything ends sooner or later. Just as it should. Because now is only now. And this moment… is so precious.
I always feel happy
In the places where I can be sincere,
Where I can blend into the crowd
And may not pretend to be someone else.
Memory is the ultimate definer of our lives. For what are our lives, but a collection of memories... memories of events, experiences, emotions... all stamped onto our nervous systems, all leading to here and now, making us each the person we are today. Without them, the present would be void of context.
