The reason why its called to past is because it is behind us and the future is what is in front of us but remembering to live in the present. We all look back at our past just for old times sake, me personally i look back to see how far i have move on in my future and take stock of what i have achieved.wave

I don't think anyone can forget the past, at least I know that I can't and I really don't want to. But I think what it is trying to say is what everyone else in here has told you. Also for you to learn from your past mistakes and move on. Sometimes it is hard, but we all can do it.

The past always follows wherever you go in life.Everyone has baggage from past years and it's not so much about what happens to you in life, but more about how you deal with it.

In my mind I have packed away all the past in a box,tied it up with ribbon and put it away.It's there if I want a reminder but most times just gathers dust and does no harm.

The past is dead...the future hasn't happened yet...if we dwell in either place it removes us from now...if we are not in the now then we are not living. When you live now then the only state you can be in is happiness...if you are not happy it is because you are not here but living either in the past or the future.

Happiness is not a place you go to or arrive at...it's an awareness...simply an awareness that you are happy...now. And if you can free yourself from the past or the future you will be in the present and only there will you be aware of your present state of mind.

Having done this you become aware that living in the past is a state of unhappiness due to the desire to repeat a good feeling you once had or change something that you felt you did wrong because you believe that this would make you happy...thus you are unhappy.

The future is a fantasy place where we will all become happy...thus we are not happy yet.

The past and the future are states of unhappiness...free yourself of those states and what remains is the state of happiness.


Carry on...
