How we see things today is almost certainly not how we saw them in our youth, or even yesterday. We change as we engage, and as we experience the world around us...we learn.
Of course, we don't always like what we see. And, we can choose to ignore it. Or, we can take a posture of digging in deeper, seeking to gain a better understanding of what happened and why. Perhaps we can use it to serve our future. Or better yet, someone else's future. The one thing we can't do is unsee it. So, we might as well use it to make things better.
