I love this quote. It will definitely be one of the sayings/quotes that I stitch. It is one that I feel speaks the truth.
What you were is long gone and it is time to forget it. What you are is what you have become along the way as you learned about life and how it works. It is a stopping point along the way to what you are meant to be.
What you were meant to be is in the future. It is a place where you have not reached as of yet. The lessons about life are still being learned. It is what you are destined to be in the future.
It is never too late to become what you were meant to be.

Cute. I really do love the quote. I spent most of my teaching life teaching children to love themselves and to look to the future.

Who we want to be is actually our own personal choice.

There's always a second chance in life as long as you live.

That's a great saying, and one we should aspire to! In a nutshell, it's about growth and development. Never stop learning, never stop trying to better yourself; never become stagnant. The future is a blank slate, it's up to us to write the story.

@HazySue Well the key is you have to want to put in the effort to make your life better. It’s not just going to be handed to you.

@moffittjc It is a lot of hard work to be what you want to be in life.

It's so important to keep that brain going. No matter how old you are, how ill, there are so many possibilities open to you. It may take longer it may be harder but you will make your life livable with the effort you put forth to make it better.

Life is short, so one needs to be always at his best to achieve a lot of memories.
