Bad thing Quote by Gus

“Things are changing. They are forever constantly changing in my life. Nothing stays the same for a long period of time in my life. Things change, people change, feelings change. Ive learned quite a bit about myself lately, both surprising things and not so surprising things. Sometimes I wish that…” quote by Gus

“Things are changing. They are forever constantly changing in my life. Nothing stays the same for a long period of time in my life. Things change, people change, feelings change. Ive learned quite a bit about myself lately, both surprising things and not so surprising things. Sometimes I wish that time could stand still. Unfortunately it doesnt work like that. I dont ever feel the need to be good to the people who have brought nothing but bad things to me. And I realise that I need nothing more than the people who love me and have always been there since day one. We are always asking what if? Constantly wondering what could have been or would have been if it happened in another way. What could have happened if we had pursued another path? We call the paths we take choices, choices which can make us overwhelmed and can also fill us with regrets and sorrow. We make these so we can learn, learn the value of our mistakes and learn how to fix them.”
