Your past may have influenced you, but your future is created by the person you decide to become.
“We are not what happened to us, we are what we wish to become.” ~ Carl Jung
Reflection
Carl Jung’s words remind us that our past is not a prison—it is a place we once stood, not where we are destined to remain. What happened to us may shape us, but it does not define our horizon. We define that ourselves by choosing who we wish to become. Each decision, each act of courage, each dream we dare to nurture pulls us further from old narratives and closer to the life waiting within us. You are not your wounds. You are your becoming.
