DEAR YOU: For When You Need It Quotes

“You cannot change what happened. You cannot unsay the words, unmake the choices, remove the circumstances that arrived without your permission and shaped you in ways you would not have chosen. That territory is closed. But how you carry what happened — what meaning you make of it, what it teaches you, what you build from it, what kind of person you decide to become in the light of having lived through it — that territory remains entirely open. The past does not have the authority to determine your future. It has the authority only to inform it. And informing is not the same as determining. What you do with what you have lived through — the wisdom you extract from it, the compassion it produces in you, the understanding of yourself and of others that it has made possible — that is still yours to shape.”
