Your past can be likened to the wake of a speed boat, or a plane. Leave it behind where it belongs.
Your past is over, loosen the bond so you can heal and move on. Let go of the past pains, the abuses, the shortcomings. Do no use your personal history to justify self-defeating behaviour and scarcity. Do not wallow in self pity because you are an alcoholic, your parents abused you as a child, or whatever.
The reverse is also true. The “Good Old Days” are gone and will never return and we do not need to recreate them in order to be happy or fulfilled.
In order to become free to immerse yourself in this moment, you must examine the past, understand it, accept it, embrace it with compassion, Love it for all that you have learned and experienced. If you need help to do this, go ahead. This will give you the strength to throw away the past in your own unique way – through a poem, song or in whatever way you feel called to.
There are no mistakes or coincidences in this universe. All the illnesses, abuses and dark times we have been through helped us to get where we are today.
Do not waste time with guilt or regret over the past or worry over the future. It is futile. Do not allow thoughts based on your past to define you. Give up the past and the future in your mind and merge totally into the now.
Be the limitless Spirit you are meant to be and do not try to live up to the labelling you have made for yourself. Any and all limitations are set by you yourself. You are connected to the Source, thus connected to the unlimited power of God. Transform all the limiting beliefs now!
