- Don’t lose your present to your past.
Hey my Strawberries !!!!! I hope you are well.
We all had a time when our past obsessed us. Always, ‘What if I didn’t talk to that person? What if I would not have come to this place? If only I had done this at that time, etc.. ‘’
I do not know why we hurt ourselves like that, to want to imagine a past that will never happen.
Literally, the only thing you can do is learn from your past.
The past is a lesson in life.
A lesson that helps us in one way or another.
Mistakes made, people met, missed opportunities will unfortunately stick to us but if we make sure to take all this to make a big journal that will help us for the future it would help us not to reproduce the same mistakes.
That’s why we shouldn’t deny our past and pretend it never existed.
Of course it did exist, and without it you would not be the same person today.
It’s very hard, especially if what happened was painful.
How can we go ahead when everything reminds us of the past ?
That’s a question I’ve been repeating all day.
The nightmares that remind me that I lived it does not allow me to forget, even if sometimes I want to forget.
I think I can finally answer that question.
Forgiveness, self-forgiveness and accepting that if we experienced certain things it was for a reason.
Maybe we’ll never know why, but we have to accept it.
Remember that everything is hard before it gets easy.
If one of your decisions resulted in a butterfly effect that destroyed you and you hate yourself for that choice you made in the past, it is important to forgive yourself because without it you will never fully heal. No matter if you had done otherwise in the past it would surely have changed nothing because it was fate.
Of course you can want to stay in the past because of the good times.
You are like: ‘’ It was simpler before, it was better before. ‘’
It’s the same thing, it doesn’t help us.
We’re afraid of the future, so we’re stuck in the past.
We’re so afraid of the future because we don’t know what it is, but I think we should just live in the moment.
Thought of the future of course but not negative thought.
Let’s try to make the present pleasant for an even more pleasant future and for a memorable future past.
I hope you enjoyed this little article.
See you soon for a new article. ♥️
