A Native American shaman once told me, “when people ask me how old I am, I say thousands of years old. All my ancestors, they’re inside me, they’re in my blood.” The knowledge acquired, the progress we make as a humanity. Where you’re at in this very moment is all due to every action of every ancestor of yours. You carry the weight of an entire blood line.
Your life isn’t about just you. It’s about all who ever came before you, and all who will step on this Earth after your body is nothing but ashes in the ground. Take responsibility for the consequences of your action.
