I'd like to say that when issues come up that are from my past, I let go of them easily. It's not the same with certain issues from Mr. Lovebug's past. It's nothing new. I can't change it. Why do I feel the need to remind him of his mistakes every time that it comes up?
Good advice that I like to share with my kiddos. Why can't I extend that sentiment to myself? What happens today doesn't define me. It's just a snapshot of a day in my life. Put it in the book and leave it there. MOVE ON. Let it be a small reminder to keep moving forward.
Through my flaws, I find beauty. I am who I was meant to be. It flaw is so carefully stitched together. I am a masterpiece. There is nobody else quite like me.
And, this. It really is important to move on. Let it go. KEEP MOVING FORWARD.
All that has happened in my thirty-five years of life has made me the person that I am. I am not perfect. I get angry. I get sad. I say mean things out of frustration. I can't let the past stop me from moving forward. Letting go and forgiving... easy to say yet hard to do. May this be a constant, gentle reminder to KEEP MOVING FORWARD.
