wisdom (maturity) and the obvious
So I had this revelation as I was walking from the post office, slightly hungover (a martini and glass of wine at dinner, for one who rarely drinks...) and enjoying the strangely warm weather. I realized that there is nothing I can do to change my past, that my childhood was what it was, that the only way to be free is to look at each day as it happens and to look toward the future and not dwell on the past. This does not mean that I should not try to understand the past; I have searched through it endlessly, and feel that for now, there is no point in doing so further. (Thanks, Bao. Your way of seeing has shown me a lot). While this may all seem obvious, I need to realize things for myself...
