Every experience brings with it a piece of our life, it is up to us to grasp it, make it ours, and live to the full the teachings that have arisen from it. But it takes courage to accept them, sometimes they are able to annihilate you, to bend you, to the point of turning you into an unknown being that you knew nothing about. A being able to really choose what to experience, a being able to go where no one had dared to go before, a being who understood that life must be lived to the end, accepting every consequence, overcoming every obstacle, falling and rising continually, because what has always belonged to us cannot be taken from us, and it is not possible that it is hidden from us.
We have had the gift of free will, it is our helm, it is up to us to direct it where we want it to arrive, only to us. Today, that boy I was, gave way to the man I am. My name is Luke Bouer, and this is my story.
