What our lives are

"And who we get stuck in those rooms with adds up to what our lives are."

Allow me to take this quote a little further. It's not only who is in our rooms, but what we're doing in them, and how it's being done, and all of the other components of being in a room. Take that for all it is. What do you want that to be? How do you want that to affect your life? If our life is the sum of who we get stuck in those rooms with, then how do you want your life to be? Think about it. Think about whether or not you want certain rooms to be a part of your life. Rooms you've been in in the past can't be left. Regrets, arguments, whatever it is, can't be erased. But you can stop yourself before you enter one of those rooms in the future. If you foresee trouble in a room, then don't go in. Try and find a better place to be.

Think about what you want your life to be. Don't try and arrange your rooms so that it aligns with your mental blueprint - instead, be consciously aware of your surroundings before you enter a room. We are all faced with difficult choices and challenges in life. But to make the most of it, you just have to be in the right room.
