When we are born, we're a part of someone's life story. When we get to grow up, we become more and more aware of the fact that our own story is developing, and as it is our story, we are the ones that get to decide what happens in it. We are the pen and our story is the words, we can control what we want our story to be about, but as normal, things go on their own, and some things will be written down without us noticing them, but after all, the resume of our story it's still the one that we wrote with our hands.
