The Past

Each day passes and each moment people are getting older. Have you ever looked back and tried to rewind things? The feeling of wanting to do things all over again or simply wanting to redo things.

The past for some of us, stayed at the past but for some of us though,we tend to still live in it. How do one knows that one has moved on and no longer live in the past? For this I think, depend on how the person accept the past and how well did one let go of it.

I have such a powerful past and one that I am trully grateful for. The past for me is something that I must learn whether it is the bad past or good past, it always means bringing me to another level in life, to another chapter and to another begining. Bad past for me holds a special meaning as much as the good past, in other sense, having it both ways to make up the present moment and the future whereby sad moments and happy moments will still make me smile whenever I look back on what I have been or gone through in life.

I cherish all memories, all mistakes and all struggles. And it excites me each day upon waking up knowing that I will have to go through either a different or the same journey of the day. Each of us has our own journey of the day and at the end of it, its up to us how we want to digest it before closing that day to start a new journey ahead. The most important thing that we have to be aware of is how we accept and close the journey so that we'll be able to secure another day to go through.

I have met people who still live in their own shadows, in their own past and not able to fully embrace the present and to live the future. Letting go of it is very important and vital for one to start a new begining. There is no easier way of letting it go except making the past feels like it is a beautiful thing to learn from.

For me, being able to walk away easily on any situation has made things easier to let go no matter how hard it is for me to try to cling onto it. Having a strong self-discipline though, will help us to decide on what to do.

Thinking of moving on? Well, bear in mind first on how you want to close the previous chapter before doing it because that will influence on what is ahead. One thing to remember though, the simple rule in this world, what happens in the past can't never be rewind, and so live it, learn it and love it. Have a nice day!
