True.
Although it’s recommended to leave the past behind..
because it’s over..

I think instead we should recommend taking the lessons we learned with us going forward..
so we can remember the impact of certain experiences and don’t repeat…

The photos of our minds…

Somethings just stay with you though.. no matter how much you try to forget or suppress the memories

What a beautiful statement! And to a point, so incredibly true. Although I do believe some of what exoticnita is saying. In my point of view we can sometimes become too obsessed with the past, or condemn others for their past, or the past they were never even a part of. 😉

  Yes I agree with exoticnita too we are all right! The things is not to dwell on the past yet we must learn from it and in the bigger picture there are some things best forgot but other things we must never forget. Thank you so much for reading!! xx

Hopefully, we will teach those that do not remember where it all went wrong, so that we do not repeat the same mistakes!
