Pause & Remember- If you empty yourself of yesterday's sorrows, you will have much more room for today's joy.

... I realized that my father had learned something in his recovery that I still hadn't totally grasped: the past would only fester and eat away at us if we tried to hold on to it too tightly.

But you have to let go of it sometime, Gaby. You can't change the past, any of it, and hanging on just eats your life away.

Get pass your past, be a presence in your present, and let no one refute your future.

Sometimes the only reason why you
won't let go of someone making you
sad is because he was the only one
that once made you happy.

To get over the past, you first have to accept that the past is over. No matter how many times you revisit it, analyze it, regret it, or sweat it…it’s over. It can hurt you no more.
