About This Quote

Each of us is the sum total of the lives that have passed before us. We are made up of the experiences and lessons they have taught us. We are not just our bodies, but also our spirits, our minds, our memories, our goals. Our lives are made up of so many different things that can’t be defined in one simple phrase. As humans, we are constantly learning, growing, and evolving throughout our lives so it is not possible to define ourselves in one word.
