[ ghost ]

Don’t allow yourself to be haunted.

Sometimes past mistakes, or things we may regret find their way to be forcefully felt. This can be caused by now forgiving ourselves or being hung up on an expired possibility of a past occurence having a different outcome. Basically, a tug of war with the past, a jostle with a ghost.

This fight is unwinnable - ghosts are intangible and the past isn’t malleable. Whatever we wish to go back in time to alter cannot ever be altered, and guess what? that’s okay. I genuinely believe that if something wasn’t supposed to happen, it wouldn’t. Even bad things have the advantage of teaching us a lesson, showing us what not to do in the future. So, the worst thing that can happen is you make a mistake, and you learn from it. Let this post be a reminder to not be haunted by what can never, ever be changed.

Don’t let the ghost of the past wear you away or obfuscate your present or future.

Leave the past in the past.
