Supportive Counseling

The present is like a ball of clay. I can grasp it and shape it which will lead me to the next moment and into my future. Or, I can ignore it and it will pass me by.
“Argue for your limitations, and sure enough, they’re yours.” There was a lot I didn’t understand about messiahs.
