– Marcel Proust
This reminds me of the old adage, "Wherever you go, there you are."
Changing your life isn't so much about changing the outward appearance of your life, but more about changing the way you see it.
You can see a lazy vagrant on the corner, or you can see a lost soul who's afraid and overwhelmed and who feels hopeless and alone. Each sight elicits a completely different emotion.
You can see a disobedient, stubborn child in need of strict discipline, or you can see a child afraid of losing your affection or their own value who only needs love and reassurance.
A person can recreate their entire world without ever leaving their yard. The value of your life isn't measured by what you see, it's measured by HOW you see it.
