I am the person that I am today because of the patterns that have been made in my brain by my parents and ancestors. I am the person that I am today because of the patterns formed in my brain by a broken childhood.
And I am the person that I am today because I have realized that my mind is more powerful than those entrapping patterns and that in fact I can make new patterns by being mindful and present.
I am the person that I am today because I am the author of the story of my life.
