Seeking to forget makes exile all the longer; the secret of redemption lies in remembrance. Richard von Weizsaecker
If we want to change we have to pay attention to where we came from. The only way we can take control of our lives or start to get better is to take a look at what we have been doing. If we want to change our feelings we have to change our thinking and behavior. One of the motivators for doing this can be to look at what we are doing to the people we care the most about, or at least who care about us the most.
If we are too focused on what we want or what we think we need the people around us tend to suffer.
Change towards being more positive is never easy, it always hurts a bit, it generally gets us better and happier in the long run.
