“Scars show us where we have been, they do not dictate where we are going.” ― David Rossi

"It is said that history repeats itself, but we are only doomed to relive our past if we fail to learn from it. The past is not a map to where you are going, it's a record of where you have been. Its purpose is not to drag you back through emotional muck, but to serve you best by reminding you of lessons learned so you can avoid them in the future." ― from React or Respond by Kimberly and Tom Goodwin
