There's truly only 1 thing you can depend on in this life - it will all go on. Whether you like it or not, things are going to change.
Things are going to switch, adapt, adjust, and morph through time, and to be truthful, you have absolutely no control of what really happens. Yes, we may have certain concepts for what we want to see in our future - but truly it is beyond control when we actually mull it over.
If we dive into the land of the past, the place we can basically never take a trip back to, we begin to experience the same exact reality too - what is done is done and we can never change it. Sure, we might possibly be able to hide it from people who don't know better in the present, but in fact, what's happened will continue to be there in the back of our minds. We must learn to accept our past and move forward with dignity. There is no other way.
We must permit life to go on.
We must permit ourselves to let go of the past and stop always focusing on the future to give us a fair opportunity to live in the present.
The present, really when it really boils down to it, is the only time that we really have. And yet, so many people appear to live everywhere but in it. Many are stuck in the tar of the past or are making an attempt to swim to the future as fast as they can - only to find that living in both these places yields absolutely nothing.
So be here and now.
Be here.
Permit life to go on and take some time to experience the beauty of what really is in front of you.
Doesn't that sound much better than being stuck in the past?
