What you were and what you have become

Copied the entry below from this blog. I just had to post it here too because these words hit me so close to home...

Lucas: And Hansel said to Gretel, “Let us drop these bread crumbs, so that together we can find our way home, because losing our way would be the most cruel of things.” This year, I lost my way.

Nathan: And losing your way on a journey is unfortunate, but losing your reason for the journey is a fate more cruel.

Peyton: The journey lasted 8 months. Sometimes I traveled alone. Sometimes there were others who took the wheel- and took my heart. But when the destination was reached, it wasn’t me who arrived. It wasn’t me at all.

Brooke: And once you lose yourself you have two choices: find the person you used to be, or lose that person completely.

Mouth: Because sometimes you have to step outside of the person you’ve been and remember the person you were meant to be, the person you wanted to be, the person you are.
