Follow the clues

Follow the clues.

The stirring of each days emotions are fueled by a lifetime of memories that like a limb contributes to our well-being and future. Where we come from gives us the tools to navigate the coming days that turn into years. As we go we learn the value of good and bad right and wrong success and failure and all of these motivate us to be better prepared for anything that lys ahead. Upon reflection in the aftermath we can safely ponder the avenues and course we took and measure it against the now knowledge we have. Intelligence minus some emotion is dry and filled with sharp edges. There are tools of balance through the experiences we have and if we don't learn from them we might as well be a mouse on a spinning wheel.
