The person I was before is not the person I am now. That person's reality is not this person's destiny. That person gathered wisdom in their wandering. This person carries it forward, transformed. The person I am now knows tomorrow's person. Tomorrow's person beckons, a beacon in clarity. Yesterday's person learned, today's person learns, tomorrow's person will learn: Each person learns to become the next person needed. The person I am stands at the crossroads of time, Not yet there, but no longer here. Each lesson flows from person unto person. The person tomorrow exists in today's choices. The person yesterday exists in today's understanding. The person today walks the bridge between them.
