"Life must be lived forwards, but can only be understood backwards."Danish Writer, Philosopher
1813 - 1855
Do you understand who you are and from where you have come? Only in looking back at our lives can we begin to have inkling of who we are as we begin to connect the dots in our lives — as we begin to tell the stories of what has happened to us. Some of the dots in my life begin with my loud voice. As a child, I was asked to participate in church programs because I had a booming voice. When I was a sophomore in high school I decided to become a preacher. I have spent the last 25 years of my life as a motivational speaker. Three dots that when I look back at my life begin to tell the story of who I was and who I became. And there are other dots that connect me to my father and the father that I became. And dots that point to my perception of myself as an outsider, an underdog. What are the dots in your life that you are beginning to connect and therefore to understand? What are the stories you are telling yourself but nobody else? What are the stories that you are sharing with the world?
