Pondering the Past

I pondered today…what if I awakened tomorrow and I could forget all the

damaging things anyone ever said or did to me in my past?

How different would I be…

if I started fresh with no memories that would cause me to feel

like it is pointless to dream because failure is my destiny?

Would I dream bigger?

Would I strive harder?

Would I believe stronger?

Would I accomplish more?

Would my dreams stand a better chance of becoming a reality?

 

The past is a thief of the present….and a manipulator of the future.

Since it is unlikely that I will wake up tomorrow and forget it…

I must choose to use it.

I must learn from it.

I must grow from it.

I must leave it behind me.
