My Quote

"The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step"
- Lao Tse

I think this is an interesting quote because ... well ... it kind of tells you that you can't get anywhere if you don't start anywhere. For example, if you don't start on a project, you'll never finish it. Even if you take one tiny step, at least you're beginning.

In this case, I think that Lao Tse is talking about change. Since we're in the unit of adolescence, most children can't wait to grow up and be a teenager like their older sibling, or like how they look at other people. Teenagers are somewhat the opposite though. Most teenagers wish they were kids again, little kids who play with building blocks, have snack time, can separate right from wrong ... all those things teenagers like us feel today. In order to grow, we must take one step ... and slowly approach a time in our lives where we make our own decisions and avoid things that can destroy us. Well that's what I think anyway.

"Change is hard", people say, which is probably true to most people, but if you slowly go through the process of change, it's not so bad.
