"It takes a lot of strength and courage to put the past behind you.

To stand up and say: 'I will not let it define me'"

This applied to me a lot more when I was younger, because I was bullied a lot.

.

I just got back from a much needed walk, and on the walk I started to think (because of how stressful my life has been over the past few years) that I wish I could go back 15-20 years ago, because life for me was much simpler, but then I caught myself (a couple of times actually) saying, "This isn't helping" and I need to focus on life now.

I let the past, control me for 30 to 40 years, now ive let it go,

"now ive let it go"

I hope I get to that point too.

Lately, my mind is spending too much time in the past and the future.

I know it's not healthy. I know it's not helpful, but I've also been stressed. (hence my much needed walk last night)

.

Sometimes it's easier said than done, but I need to try to catch and keep my mind more in the present when that happens.

Its possible it happens slowly if we work on mind control daily. x
