Blast From The Past

"Your past should only motivate you to move forward." LoVe LuCy

You know when you are walking through the grocery store; you hear "that song" that makes you stop amidst the chaos of children screaming, carts flying and people pushing, as something hits your heart's memory of a past time?

There are so many cues in our lives, that take us back.Whether good or bad, we have so many difference experiences, that cause us to act, or react to things in front of us, in our present lives.

Whether we are a certain way in a certain dynamic of a relationship,causing confusion simply due to a memory of how it looked to us, before. We take with us so much from our past, and give life to it, now, that sometimes does not actually work in our favour. It is not easy, to walk on, and hold on to that which was less than desirable...

That which we desire to leave in the past. Are there anything situations in your past that you give breath to, today?Is there any specific story that you give life to, and worse, allow to define you, and justify your behaviours?

Do you let what took place in your past, whether hurtful or deceitful, hurt or deceive your current story? We all have a way, in our own way, of acting like our past experiences are handicaps, holding up our lives, and tying our hands behind our backs, so we cannot receive all that we are offered.

We also have just as much capability of making light, and taking lessons, to grow, from all that we lived in, before now. Isn't it interesting to know that our strength lies just as equally with helping as it does hindering all that we have going for us? Our past is our past.Whether we felt bruised, beaten, scorn or chewed up, swallowed, and spit back out.

Whether we felt hurt, or hindered due to economic, emotional, physical or spiritual lack. Whichever the case may be, we can choose to close the book on the belief that our past dictates our present, or worse- gives fate to our future.

Our past- It is entirely up to us to use it, or abuse it.Only we can make the decision on how we choose to pursue it. As for me...

"Case Closed."
