During Kairos I thought a lot about what you said in this post. The thing about wanting to be a little kid again is rooted more in the fact that I wish I had been appreciating every moment of my life from the beginning, not in that I want to change everything that has happened to me. Because, up until recently, I had been living in the past, worrying about things that had nothing to do with my happiness or well-being at this very moment. I would never take the time to see the good things in what I had been experiencing, and this had been the trend for my entire life. This is the first time I have ever been able to look past it, and really evaluate and begin to understand how even the bad things can have a positive impact. I have something I want you to read, so I'll probably bring it to school sometime soon.

-"I don’t allow myself to have regrets, because if I am happy with today, I should be thankful for whatever it was that got me here, even what I deem my worst decisions or mistakes. To some this may seem like a very selfish statement. It sounds as if I don’t care who I hurt in the past as long as I can say I am happy right now. What I mean, though, is that if I cannot change the ghosts of my pasts, it does no good to dwell on them. Instead I take to heart the old cliché, and try to find the lemonade I have made out of my lemons
