Are You Reliving The Past?

"Don't stumble over something behind you. Don't use the past as an excuse to miss out on today. You do not heal the wounds of the past by digging deeper into them. Acceptance truly is the bitter pill you have to bravely swallow to move beyond yesterday's sorrows. It's a choice you must make. Because the truth of the matter is that history only dictates the future if you allow it. In other words, you only have to relive it if you choose to."
