Have You Ever Wanted To Save Yourself From Your Past?

Have you ever felt that you wanted to save yourself from your past? Or would you go back and fix problems from your past, even if they had no bearing on your current situation? Do you think that the person you used to be does not fit in with who you really are?

This feeling has to do with people hiding behind a certain fragility. Our emotional memory, located in our amygdala, tricks us . We want to be at peace with the past, to say the things we never said, and take responsibility for our personality.

It is difficult for us to accept that we are who we are. You should embrace your past instead of trying to fix it. You do not have to save anything from the past to stay afloat today. You just swim forward with any baggage you’ve picked up over time.

Maybe your backpack is full of knowledge from lessons you have taken from your past. Or maybe it’s filled with rocks that threaten to sink you. Heavy stones of “I should have…” or “what if I had…”

Do not try to tie up your past, you will be stuck

It is a good idea to try to tie the knots of your past. Every day we take risks and make mistakes, but we also learn. Even if you do not learn anything, it does not mean that you should let past mistakes take pleasure in your life.

When you try to pull a thread in your past, the knot only gets tighter. Some threads stick together, others just wrap together and loosen what you have already achieved. Maybe it’s better to pick up the shuttle and weave on.

If you try to get out of a hole by digging more, you will only dig yourself deeper. If you try to tie the knot, you will be caught. You will never be able to delete the story of your life.

Imagine digging and digging to try to get out of the hole you are in. Well, that’s the way it is every time you try to get answers from the past. You are wasting time trying to choose the perfect tool for digging yourself out. We will never know why we could not handle a challenge in our past with the peace we have now. Indeed, it was the great challenge that helped to develop our peace.

To look for a reason, look for salvation in your past

As we go through life and build our identity, we sometimes have to answer why. But most of the time we just try to stay safe. The difference lies in two important points:

• If you need to answer questions to gain something valuable that you lost in the past, look for healing explanations. You want to clarify something from the past to improve your present.

• If you need to talk about something from the past to justify yourself, look better, or try to hurt someone who did you wrong, you want to protect your ego. You do not use the time to build anything.

You do not need anything from your past. It is not necessary to find answers to questions whose time has already passed. You are here and now. So stop digging and instead use your tools to plant seeds, nourish the soil and water your garden so that it can grow.

Trying to find answers from your past just because of your ego can only make your present worse. So stop digging yourself into a hole and start cultivating something beautiful.
