Rising by Falling


Growth comes with questions.

Questions follow with answers;

however, not all questions are meant to be answered.

"Did this always taste this good?"

Yes, it did. I grew.

"It's so simple now, why couldn't I understand it before?"

Because I grew.

Growth comes from questions.

Things I did not understand become clearer to me.

I will always have questions.

I will always be growing.

 

Growth comes from independence.

Independence leads to self-fulfillment and a vision.

A vision that will result in happiness.

For the majority of my life, I enjoyed technology.

Now, I enjoy teaching and helping others.

The drastic change was a result of one thing:

Growth.
