Transformation
by Ralph Martson
The past cannot be changed. But you can change.
The mistakes, disappointments, and poor choices have occurred, and cannot be undone. Yet they can teach you, motivate you, make you more determined and purposeful.
Today you have the opportunity to transform negative experience into positive power. Today you can take whatever has happened and make it into whatever you want.
The future does not equal the past, and you stand right here in the present, able to create that future. No matter how far you’ve strayed from the path, you can turn right now in the direction of your choice.
Today, positive, purposeful action will push you past the regrets, beyond the frustrations, away from previous mistakes. Look forward, with your goal firmly in mind, and go for it.
All the ups and downs of the past have brought you here. Now, make of it the very best you can imagine.

But what if they can be undone? Would someone be brave enough to change what was so that what is doesn't have to be what it is? What if you can fight to change the past? Would you take arms and do so? Or just accept what was and just bend to the rigorous violence of the storm--the one we call life--would you be a slave to its whims every lifetime? To an extent, I do let those words echo inside of me. After all... we are just pawns of what life has to offer. Who, what, why, how, and when do not fall in our hands. People come, and people go. The only ones who will stay with me forever is ME.
