Often times I think we make decisions or react to a situation based off of our past. But it's important to remember our past is insignificant to our future.
That isn't to say our past doesn't play a very important part of who we are today. Every interaction and experience has shaped us into who we are, but to use the past as a marker for how to react in a new situation or be a determinate of decisions we have to make stunts our growth.
It's something Bear and I have learned is incredibly important in our relationship. Having both come from a divorce, we know how important it is for us to leave the past in the past. When we start bringing it into this relationship we find that it only causes a roadblock.
And this doesn't just apply to relationships but every aspect of our life.
What a powerful thought...the past is insignificant to our future.
This is an inspiring message. And I agree; it’s really better to leave our past experiences behind because it will only hinder you from being happy again, particularly when it comes to divorce. And in my opinion, the only valuable things that past have and must be kept in our mind are the lessons we learned from it. Because this will help us to be stronger and avoid committing the same mistake or problem again. Thanks for sharing.
