“You can close your eyes to the things you do not want to see, but you cannot close your heart to the things you do not want to feel.”
I have come to realize that there is a lot of truth in this quote. No matter how much one DOES NOT want to feel something or have certain feelings/impulses, there is really no way to avoid them. What one needs to do in that situation is fortify her defenses and remain strong against the desires or temptations. I am determined to maintain self-control in the up coming future. There are too many good things right now. I would rather not ruin the potential of that goodness continuing.
“My fault, my failure, is not in the passions I have, but in my lack of control of them.” -Jack Kerouac
