thinking outside the box

do you believe that 

you are, who you have always been...

do you believe that 

you can never grow?

that you can 

never evolve from past situations...

whether they were for 

the better or for the worse?

~

do you believe that 

deep down you are always a mirror image of yourself 

no matter how much you seek the difference?

i truly have thought long and hard,

SO much about this topic/quote 
(what have you)

i genuinely believe that every aspect of life...

happy, sad, trying, tragic or glorifying

they all shape and mold you.

~

they all come together and give you...

your backbone, your strength, your tolerance, your trust.

the decisions and choices you have made

have all molded the outcome

(some good and bad)

they are all who you are,  and who i am.

it was me, doing me

all along!

~

i hate hearing people say, no one ever changes.

that they are always who they were from the word go
.
in my heart of hearts,

 i believe people grow 

and become the most fascinating version of who they are

based on trials and tribulations.

at the end of the day...

i believe,

what do you think about this...
