“Sometimes we’re given family, and other times we choose it. Neither is better nor worse than the other if both meet us with love and nourishment.” He guided me to take a deep breath with him. “Has your upbringing affected you? Of course. We’re affected by our early lives forever. But we can change the story, change ourselves. Nothing is ever stuck. We need only acknowledge each root before altering the trees in our mental forest. We have the power to break patterns and start new growth. For ourselves, and for everyone around us.”
