Years of training as a scientist has taught me the resilience to push through or find a way around every “no” and every failure. I’ve learned that the universe only gives up on you when you do. The stakes are never too high to go for everything that you desire. And even for everything--all at once. We always can adapt to the situation or change our course entirely. We can embrace all of the pain and the joy that moves through us. Because with every decision we make, we transform ourselves. Every part of this process is life itself. We are always moving, evolving, change after change. We are relentless changemakers.
About the Creator
S.R. Var
I wrote to understand the world around me. I stopped to become a scientist. Decades later, I write to understand myself. Perhaps if you see a bit of yourself in my writing, it may bring you some solace too.
I AM
This is not who I thought I would be. Before my family was captured and forced into slavery, I had aspirations of becoming a wealthy business owner or possibly a scholar and philosopher. Becoming a warrior was the furthest thing from my mind. Unfortunately, our Roman conquerors had other plans.
