And I see you quoted my guy, haha, a genius writer.
But on a serious note, everybody changes, it's the only constant thing in life. So, I think that the best thing is to live fully in the present, not three steps back in the past and five steps into the future. And when change eventually comes, because it will, you welcome it, willingly or otherwise. To do otherwise would be stressful. V's mentor must have been so stressed, always anticipating change and probably holding the people in the present to standards of change that have not yet come, that may never come. Smh
Since we all change in character and how we perceive things around us, we grow right? Now is changing different from growing or do they mean the same thing? I'm using the context of human behavior.
I ask people these and I got different replies. I'm curious to know yours.
Heyy, I'm definitely that book lover.

Hey Hameed,

I have a question.
Since we all change in character and how we perceive things around us, we grow right? Now is changing different from growing or do they mean the same thing? I'm using the context of human behavior.
