Much as a person can never set foot in exactly the same river on any given day, we are different each day. Yesterday made us, but the past cannot contain nor restrain us.

Perhaps both propositions are vital. Perhaps it is normal to resist change because it threatens our present state of being.

The natural forces are impossible to blunt."
