I know. One should never look back but forward right? Yeah right. Looking back can be one of the best things for you. Sometimes it helps to remember where you came from and what you have been through. Sometimes you have to look at the struggles in your life to remember that all struggles are temporary. Often we have to remind ourselves of the foolish choices that we made in order to not make the same mistakes.
We lose ourselves in relationships.We lose ourselves in careers. We lose ourselves in friends. We lose ourselves in all the responsibilities that we have on a day to day basis. I say reconquer yourself. Pull out that old journal that you hid hoping that no one would find and read your thoughts. Acknowledge how much you have matured. Acknowledge your triumphs. Laugh at your failures. Reminisce on the moments that filled you with joy. Cry at the moments of sadness. Remember the person you were and take a good look at the person you are today. Are you someone that you can be proud of? If you don't have a journal then turn on an old movie that you love. Take a long hot bath with your favorite jams playing in the background. Then use your computer to start an digital journal starting today or go the old school route and find a notebook. Reconnect with yourself.
If you don't learn from your past how can you grow and become a better person?
