In the Middle Ages, alchemists tried to find a way to change iron to gold.

Some men spent their entire lives in a fruitless search for the magic formula
that would change ordinary iron into beautiful, shining gold — gold that would
make them wealthier and more powerful than emperors and kings.

They never succeeded.

This sounds like my personal development journey at times, one where I hope to change me into someone else!

Maybe its better to turn iron into something that irons made for rather than trying to make it what it’s not and never will be.
