To accept oneโs past โ oneโs history โ is not the same thing as drowning in it; it is learning how to use it. An invented past can never be used; it cracks and crumbles under the pressures of life like clay in a season of drought.
James A. BaldwinWe have all had the experience of finding that our reactions and perhaps even our deeds have denied beliefs we thought were ours.
