Remnants of a distant past, long gone and forgotten. Never ending regrets of what might have been. Thoughts that haunt me as I cried myself to sleep. It pains me.
Why do we keep looking at the stars? Why do we long for the past? Why do we yearn for things that will never happen again? Why do we keep on hurting ourselves with what ifs?
The things that hurt the most are the things that you’ve never done because you were afraid – the risks you didn’t take for fear of being rejected, the leap of faith you didn’t do because you don’t know if he’ll take it with you.
Never let the past affect your decisions in the present. Do not be confined by your terrors and anxious perspectives. How will you know if you won’t try.
It doesn’t mean that if something didn’t work out in the past, it won’t turn out well in the future.
Look forward. Move ahead. Be happy. Savor the moment, cherish the little things and make it a happy memory.
