Infinite Loop of Life

this is another quote from One Tree Hill.

“Do you ever wonder if we make the moments in our lives, or if the moments in our lives make us? ” – Lucas Scott

Do you know the answer? I have thought about it but can’t figure it out. I would just say it goes both ways. but can you choose between the two?

Everything  you do, Everything you don’t do, Every decision you make, everything…determines who you are. Each one of those little decisions you make everyday has an effect on your personality. All those decisions have made you who you are today.

A while ago I thought I wasn’t happy with who I am, but If I was given a choice to go back and change something, I don’t think I would. This made me realize that I don’t really want to change myself. I am satisfied with who I am. Change is inevitable, and I would willingly change myself based on my future encounters, my future decisions, but I wouldn’t change anything from my Past. You don’t really notice when its happening, but after a while, you realize you are not the same person you were.

As for the “if we make moments in our lives”, then I guess, Yes we do. The sort of person you are, your likes, your dislikes, how you react to a situation will make a moment. It happens that one of the most normal, routine day of your life can present a precious moment because of how you react to it.

The People you meet in life also have a significant role in making you who you are. that’s another topic, another quote…

okay so the problem is, how we react to a situation makes a moment. and the moments which occur in our life make us who we are and determine how we react to a situation. so where did this loop start? do we have anything in our control?

Boundaries

“At some point, you have to make a decision. Boundaries don’t keep other people out. They fence you in. Life is messy. That’s how we’re made. So, you can waste your lives drawing lines. Or you can live your life crossing them “-Grey’s Anatomy

Future

“We spend our whole lives worrying about the future, planning for the future, trying to predict the future, as if figuring it out will cushion the blow. But the future is always changing. The future is the home of our deepest fears and wildest hopes. But one thing is certain when it finally reveals itself. The future is never the way we imagined it.”
-Meredith. (v.o, 5×23)
Grey’s Anatomy

There's Always a Way

“If I have to I’ll survive it. There’s always a way. When things look like there’s no way, there’s a way. To do the impossible, to survive the in-survivable. There’s always a way. any You, you and I have this in common. We’re inspired. In the face of the impossible, we’re inspired. So if I can offer any advice…Today, if you become frightened, instead become inspired.”
-Grey’s Anatomy

Happiness

“Happiness comes in many forms. In the company of good friends, in the feeling you got when you make someone else’s dreams come true, or in a promise of hope renewed.
It’s okay to let yourself be happy, because you never know how great that happiness might be.
Sometimes pain becomes such a huge part of your life, that you expect it to always be there, because you can’t remember a time in your life when it wasn’t.
But then one day you feel something else. Something that feels wrong only because it’s so unfamiliar, and in that moment you realize you’re Happy.” - One Tree Hill

Regret

“Regret comes in all shapes and sizes. Some are small like when we do a bad thing for a good reason. Some are bigger like when you let down a friend. Some of us escape the pain of regret by making the right choice. Some of us have little time for regret, because for looking forward to the future. Sometimes we have to fight to come to terms with the past, and sometimes we bury our regrets by promising to change our own ways. But our biggest regrets are not of things we did — but, for things we didn’t do. Things we didn’t say that could save someone that we care about. Especially, when we can see the dark storm is headed their way.” - One Tree Hill
