On the question of choice – that we choose the people in our life – what is your point? – we choose those we are attracted to no matter if that attraction is based on some huge development flaw in us, in them – it is what it is, we are where we are, this is it, there is no other play – we cannot pull out what we don’t like about our foundation without…
For those who don’t believe that another life awaits you – I say spread your wings and fly……..
We sat outside on the patio – and mi amiga y yo philosophized about la vida, mi amiga dice que this is it, there is no other place to go; that childhood is un arrollo to get through; if you have a hero, think again because you might diminish yourself – una de las cosas que esos dice es one of the truths is this is a random universe where we bring meaning to chaos…
