Imagine being confronted by your past self, what you see as your worst self. Selfish, childish, quick to anger, always with something to prove. You try to tell yourself that you're not that person anymore but she's right there. She feels like a reminder that you'll never fully escape your past.

Imagine meeting your future self and she's everything you want to be. Confident, elegant, important, surrounded by loved ones. You want to be like her but it's so hard. She feels like an impossible goal that you'll never reach. You feel like you can't ever be her.

“Then God sent a sip of solitude, in silent grace and a dash of hue,

Colours that made the broken whole and gave the seeking heart its due.

The birds then sang in sacred peace—from darkness of night to glowing release.” — Jamil Hussain
