Experiences

It's amazing how life can change from one day to the next. To one degree or another, we all have trauma and heartbreak in our lives. Some are caused by our own design, others through no fault of our own. Some come from nature. Others are manmade, some we don't suffer just as a person, but as a nation, such as 9/11. How we respond to these life-altering events can be a defining moment. No one who experiences such events is left unchanged. Some heartaches leave wounds that forever remain, even if they heal. 
     "The future depends on what we do in the present"
     - Mahatma Ghandi
This is especially true of our eternal future.
