It is within anyone’s power to make better choices. They simply must CHOOSE to do so. IN THE END, OUR FUTURE IS NOT CREATED BY OUR PAST… BUT IT UNQUESTIONABLY WILL BE CREATED BY EVERY CHOICE THAT WE EACH MAKE FROM THIS DA FORWARD. We choose our lives by choosing our actions! At some point each and every one of us has to say, my past be damned. My past doesn’t control me. Every choice I make is mine.
