Should we be judged by our past?
I have to say I do not agree with this daily quote from Sound Eagle at all.
If we are judging people by their past, we are in effect, living in the past. Should we be judged based on mistakes we might have made? Wrong paths that we chose? Should we not actually be judged by the changes we have made, the life we we are living now, and he future we have planned?
Life is finite, every day we have the opportunity to change it and adapt our path.
