STEPPING OUT OF MY PAST !!!

Some things from the past need to be kept, but they need to be kept in perspective of understanding what we’ve gained about life and people around us.

Every time we go through various experiences with others, we learn something negative or positive; it’s good to evaluate circumstances and our reaction to them. I realize that it is going through situations that we grow and learn so we don’t repeat the same mistakes. Sometimes we also  get caught in a cycle we don’t want to be in, we need to refrain  from judging others and self, labeling or making oaths , such as “I will never  do this or that  anymore” instead we need to get healed from inside and move on with life.

What do we need to leave behind in our past???????

Failures;
Mistakes;
Losses;
Emptiness;
Loneliness;
Fears;
Self-condemnation;
Regrets;
Shortfalls;
Lies;
Deceptions…

In truth I could add more on this list, we all have “things” we need to leave behind, if we don’t leave them behind, they get in the way of our present and may even affect our future. Staying in the past is very dangerous as that get us lost, and we may get depressed or miserable, and this three things can work on your heart and steal all the joy because we are not seeing life clearly at that moment, we are seeing it through our past experiences and life is overshadowed of the past and we can get stuck.

To get out of the past, we first needed to admit our own responsibility in the situation (everyone involved has a part and it’s not just being a victim), because the only one we  can control is “SELF”, I have learned to face and be accountable for my own actions in every situation, I have also learned to forgive myself.

In reality, there may be consequences from our past that we have to live with every day, but we must not take it out on anyone else, but lay it down and move on with life. For instance someone may go to prison for what they have done, we must go through some situations caused by our mistakes sometimes, but still give ourselves a chance to live happier again

my new attitudes

In any case, I have decided to be happy and thankful in my present  and move forward in my future with a new attitudes.
