Okay let’s get right to it… you cannot change the past.

Wait, let me say it again because there are a lot of people who seem to think that fixating on or bitching and moaning about the past, will actually change things.

You cannot change the past.

However much you try, however much you wish for it, however desperately you’d like to… there is absolutely nothing you can do to change things that has already come to pass.

You cannot unsay things.
You cannot redo things.
You cannot unhurt people.
You cannot not be hurt.
You cannot make different choices.
You cannot be treated differently.
You cannot take back a single moment.
You cannot unfuck that one thing you can’t stop thinking about.

Take a few moments and look closely at the image below.

You cannot undo that what has been done.

Let’s be honest, it’s straight up depressing to focus on and ruminate about bad stuff from yesterday.

You cannot change the person you were.

But you can choose the person you want to be moving forward.

You cannot change the paths you have walked in the past.

But you can choose new paths moving forward.

One more time…

You can’t change what’s already happened. Take those experiences, whatever they might be, as lessons and move on.

The things you hold onto from your past, are the things that keep you from moving forward.

You cannot change the past so stop trying.

All your doing is missing out on amazing moments right now, and the open-mindedness to recognise new and more exciting paths into the future.

And anyway, looking back all the time will only fuck with your neck. 😏
