Ilona Andrews...sometimes what you go looking for isn't as important as what you leave behind.
About This Quote
As we grow and experience more in life, we generally begin to ask ourselves, “What is it that we've accomplished? What is it we've done?” We tend to focus on the things we have accomplished and the things we have left behind. And that's okay. But focusing on the things you've left behind is what brings true satisfaction in life. When you look back at your life with a fuller perspective, you'll see that the things that really matter were always with you all along.
