Your brick story

We can't change the past, so our past is limited. It is what it is. Our future has NO LIMITS! Don't dwell on the past, no matter where you are now, you have to start from where you are. It does not matter "what could have been." All that matters is what you do TODAY.

Live in your TODAYS, not in your yesterdays!

    I guess the only way the past does not have limits is in how you remember it and how you can make sense of it - i have been revisiting my past and understanding some things in a completely new way. I like your bricks!

    That's true, roze. I like whan I learn something that is so new to me, and so radically different from my previous way of thinking, that I literally go back and re-examine some of my past interactions.

    As an example, a couple of years back, I was visiting a popular park in my area. I was walking a short distance from my girlfriend, and some other woman comes up and asks me to take her picture. she posed in front of some flowers, and I took the picture. I didn't think anything of it. Then as we were walking away, my GF said "she didn't want a picture, she was just trying to pick you up." At first I thought she was being jealous, but the more I thought about it, the more it made sense. She usually was not the jealous type, and some of the interaction seemd strange with the other one. when i realized that this was true, it was a huge awakening. (I used to be kind of clueless about seeing "indicators of interest.") I then went back and re-examined SO many other interactions from my past, and found that I had mis-read a lot of different situations.
    I guess that is one kind of "how you make sense of it" that you refer to.
    Thanks roze!
    Thanks Wolf!
    I'll post new bricks as I think of them. Something has to spark the idea though, I don;t want to just sit and "come up with one" because it will feeel too forced.
    enjoy the day!!!
