Cut away the nonsense, the drama, the regret, the scars of the past, and make a decision to no longer let them govern your happiness and freedom.
Steve Maraboli
This is your life. This is your moment. Think of all you have been through just to get here… MAKE IT COUNT!
Steve Maraboli
If we let go of the past, we will never learn from our mistakes.
Sarah van Waterschoot
And the past held only this wisdom: that love was a damaging mistake, and its accomplice, hope, a treacherous illusion.
Khaled Hosseini
The past is what you take with you.
Kate Atkinson
Nights without beginning that had no end. Talking about a past as if it'd really happened. Telling themselves that this time next year, this time next year, things were going to be different.
Raymond Carver
I've learned it does not do well to dwell on the past. You cannot change it. you can revisit it, you can remember it, but it simply will not change!
Kim Yannayon
I guess sometimes there are moments when people’s lives change and they don’t even know it. They can look back later, when everything's different, and say yes, that was the start of it―that’s when it all began, and I didn't even notice.
Robert Swindells
It's not being in the past, but accepting who we were and being who we are.
Roisin Turner
Past beings interact with present ones because life and death are a continuum and expiration entails no loss of vital essence.
Michael E. Moseley
How would your life be different if you learned to let go of things that have already let go of you? From relationships long gone, to old grudges, to regrets, to all the 'could’ve' and 'should’ve,' to the dead friendships you still hang on to... Free yourself from the burden of a past you cannot change.
Steve Maraboli
He looked around him wildly, as if the past were lurking here in the shadow of his house, just out of reach of his hand.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
If there is any good in life, in history, in my own past, I invoke it now. I invoke it with all the passion with which I have lived.
Elizabeth Kostova
Yesterday I smiled, tomorrow never came and today is what I'm living.
Jill Telford
...The most important thing, I think. You can't run from your past. You have to take it for what it is and realize that it's part of you.
Lisa Wingate
My life's a tangle of past and present, like two separate puzzles with their pieces tumbled together. Nothing fits.
Emily Murdoch
we use to regret over our past... but sometimes i wonder why ???because everything we did in past was best from our side, well in case of both doing and thinking...
Lovely Goyal
Why did I allow myself to be bored ever in the past and to compensate for it got high or drunk or rages or all the tricks people have because they want anything but serene understanding of just what there is, which is after all so much.
Jack Kerouac
Past is past... no it's not! People are always fond of saying that, but what's past is never past; not entirely.
Anne Tyler
You cannot be who you were.
D.J. Molles
There were so many wrongs piling up on both sides, so much of the past being dragged into the present, that living there was like carving the story of your life on to a sepulchral monument.
Sara Sheridan
Every time the song looped, all I heard was the part about the lies - and how they weigh you down. Tonight, as I drive toward Detroit in my Jeep, I know what those words really mean. It's not just the lies they're referring to. It's life. You can't run to another town, another place, another state. Whatever it is you're running from - it goes with you. It stays with you until you find out how to confront it.
Colleen Hoover
There are things that once done can’t be undone, things that once said can’t be unsaid.
Lisa Gardner
If you throw even a cursory glance into the past, at the life which lies behind you, not even recalling its most vivid moments, you are struck every time by the singularity of the events in which you took part, the unique individuality of the characters whom you met. This singularity is like the dominant note of every moment of existence; in each moment of life, the life principle itself is unique. The artist therefore tries to grasp that principle and make it incarnate, new each time; and each time he hopes, though in vain, to achieve an exhaustive image of the Truth of human existence. The quality of beauty is in the truth of life.
Andrei Tarkovsky
It's a cruel, ironical art, photography. The dragging of captured moments into the future; moments that should have been allowed to evaporate with the past, should exist only in memories glimpsed through the fog of events that came after. Photography forces us to see people before their future weighed down on them. Before they knew their endings.
Kate Morton
I am sick of the dern box! I have not only stepped out of the hateful piece of cardboard, I have burned it and scattered the ashes over my past.
Tanya R. Simon
The past is no good if you can't learn from it; therefore, no sense in dwelling on it.
Arians Karlovičs
There are times in every life when the past acquires a particular resonance, when we grow sensitive to sounds and voices normally beyond the range of hearing. The past shades into present always and everywhere, but only rarely do we acknowledge the process; only rarely does some trigger force us to recognize ourselves as citizens of that frontier.
Mark Slouka
Every thing has changed but my mind never.
pavankumar nagaraj
There is nothing for you to go back and live over, or fix, or feel regret about now. every part of your life has unfolded just right. And so -now- knowing all that you know from where you now stand, now what do you want? The answers are now coming forth to you. Go forth in joy, and get on with it.
Abraham-Hicks
The fact that you made worse decisions in the past shouldn't be an excuse to make bad decisions in the present.
Sanhita Baruah
You have to get clear in your present life — clear of the junk from your past.
Bryant McGill
It’s good to live in the past. It’s sexier here
Tiffany Reisz
People didn’t know everything then. There were things people had never seen before. Places nobody had ever been. You could make up a story and people would believe it...also maybe it seems like it would be okay not to be perfect. Nobody was perfect back then. Just about everyone was defective, and most people had no choice except to stay that way.
Carol Rifka Brunt
The bottom line is this; when one person stops being a part of your life, another one will come, and fill that empty space. Leave the ones who left in the past, right where they belong, and never look back.
Ena Snow
One’s story isn’t a skin to be shed— it’s inescapable, one’s body and blood. You go on pumping it out till you die, the story veined with the themes of your life, the ever-recurring story that’s at once your invention and the invention of you.
Philip Roth
One minute you are here and the next moment you are some place else, some time a long ago. That is the thing about your mind. Memories. Everything still exists in the folds of your brain; you may try to forget or honestly believe that you have forgotten but nothing is ever erased. Every memory is registered, good or bad does not matter. Sometimes you bring some out on purpose, sometimes some memory jumps at you on its own, shocking you, shaking you, making you realize how far you have come and at the same time proving to you that you can never really go far enough.
Arti Honrao
Be simple, don't carry the baggage the past, open your hands, and let it go.
Debasish Mridha
Life is easier when you don't carry baggage from the past.
Debasish Mridha
I can't defeat anyone except my past and transcend to be better.
Debasish Mridha
Take revenge, not by hurting someone, but by succeeding in life and helping those who were hurting you in the past.
Debasish Mridha
We’re all blurry-eyed wanderers of time, and the unfortunance of it all is that we’d probably all go on to do great things if only we searched for what corrected and focused our vision instead of relying on our past – life’s grand kaleidoscope – to help us find our way forward.
A.J. Darkholme
You can't move beyond your past if you keep talking about it like it's your present.
Kemi Sogunle
The longer you live in the past, the less future you have to enjoy.
Robert Tew
A past will never die. It's always there and always present as long as your living breathing and able to remember.
Stephen Lozada
I was afraid to fall asleep, but staying awake also brought back painful memories. Memories I sometimes wish I could wash away, even though I am aware that they are an important part of what my life is; who I am now. I stayed up all night, anxiously waiting for daylight, so that I could fully return to my new life, to rediscover happiness I had known as a child, the joy that had stayed alive inside me even through times when being alive itself became a burden. These days I live in three worlds: my dreams, and the experiences of my new life, which trigger memories from the past.
Ishmael Beah
Once you realize your past is just a story, it no longer has any power over you.
Robert Tew
Trap yourself inside your own brain, switch off the light, block all the escape routes, then turn your back on everything you know to be reality and try and survive there. Try. Living. Nowhere.
Carla H. Krueger
Nearly two years of dates. Still no question. Her mother and father want to set a proper date. Still no question. Her friends keep asking, when, Natasha? When? But she still hasn’t been asked The Question. It’s enjoyable to be the one with all the secrets, but in her honest mind – the hidden part that’s always sleeping – the secrets he keeps about when and if give her a feeling inside she’s never really understood completely – a sensation she had as a child when she got to the end of a fairytale where never-ending love and happiness were all but expected and wondered whether there might be…. one last page.
Carla H. Krueger
He remembers how someone – he forgets who – once said in a sarcastic tone, “Isn’t she just Little Miss Sweetness and Light?” – and it was a statement that put him off proposing. It made him seriously reassess his options. He didn’t want to be with someone others saw as overly-moral because he has flaws, he has weaknesses. How would his mistakes compare to her virtuousness? She used to dislike the competitiveness at work, the way she claimed she could never really make friends with anyone because everything was always so fake and cut-throat and he used to berate her for it, used to tell her to accept it, to realise the truth about life and relationships – but she wouldn’t take it. She was always thinking too hard about everything, always questioning her motives. Surely, if he’d married her, she’d have started questioning his.
Carla H. Krueger
Time is not an enemy as such, but a missing person, sending cryptic postcards from the past.
Carla H. Krueger
Don't torture yourself over the past. Use it as a teacher. Whatever happened to you in the past, has only prepared you for now.
Robert Tew
We shouldn't hide behind anger or anonymity when reliving the past because all that’s happened and all those who belong in our past are part of our story.
Melizena
Dwelling on your past won't get you anywhere you haven't already been.
Nel E. Sherk
No matter how much you revisit the past, there's nothing new to see.
Robert Tew
Well, I think the first thing to do when trying to let go of the past is to accept it. Denial only delays the problem for later. Deal with it now.
Innocent Mwatsikesimbe
She stood up. Something inside her had changed. "It was finally time," she thought. It was finally time to leave the past in the past. And move on. She took her first step. It felt like walking for the first time. It was strange to not be chained anymore. It felt like life. Like hope. Like happiness.
Yasmin Mogahed
It's hard getting momentum riding a bike up hill... It's hard getting momentum when you're dragging around all the pain from your past.
Tony Curl
What is past, but unalterable truth; life, just a pile of regrets; future, just a sum total of possibilities, and you...? just another trapped soul...
Gayathri Jayakumar
i loved you once but not sure the second will get me back. We know our mistakes and know our past, but we don't know which to blame. these are the last words i will say before we continue our life. Find another lover before you try to love me back.
