About This Quote
When you are young, you think that the only thing that belongs to you is your life. You think that everything you do or everything that happens to you is because of you. However, this is not always the case. The things you are doing will go away sooner or later, and they are not owned by your life.
They are owned by other people’s lives. You can make a difference in someone else’s life but it won’t be because of your life.
