“Things do not change; we change.”

What does it mean?

The world may stay the same, but the way we see it changes as we grow. Often the real change is inside us.

• “I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived.”– Henry David Thoreau
• “Not till we are lost, in other words, not till we have lost the world, do we begin to find ourselves.”– Henry David Thoreau
