Giving birth to ourselves

"He allowed himself to be swayed by his conviction that human beings are not born once and for all on the day their mothers give birth to them, but that life obliges them over and over again to give birth to themselves."

(Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Love in the Time of Cholera)

Isn't this the truth though! I feel I am growing in so many ways at this time in my life that is so different from the me of before now. It doesn't stop until the lights go out for good. Enjoy the journey!

September is always been a good month for me, for it started to talk about Christ birth on this month.
