#3: Forget About the Past

"There comes a point in your life when you realize who matters, who never did, who won't anymore, and who always will. So don't worry about people from your past. There is a reason they didn't make it to your future."
~Author Unknown

I love this quote. It used to be a challenge for me to let go of people that have hurt me in the past. There were even some things that took me years to finally decide to let go of. And when I finally did, suddenly my life went in a far different direction. One that was positive. It's kind of like how you can't drive by always looking in the rearview mirror. Occasionally it's ok to glance behind you, it can remind us to continue working for what we do want, but imagine what would happen if that's what you always did. It would not be pretty. So let's live in the present. It's a much nicer place :)
