"Our lives are a constant stream of threads weaving themselves into a living tapestry. The threads form pulls fragments into continuity, create patterns, preserve differences, and make binding connections in an ongoing cycle." -- ShadowsPub
The threads that create the fabric of our life are a mix of choice and circumstance. We don't choose the family we're born into, or events that we get caught up in, but there are choices we make like taking action. We might not like all of them, but they are the picture of our unique self.
