“The past is history.”

“It’s in the past so forget about it.”

“Let bygones be bygones.”

Old sayings about the past are never really very comforting when things from the past cause us pain in the present.

Everything in our past is either a learning experience to grow on, a great memory to reflect, or a motivator to act upon.

The great memories are the easy part of the past to embrace. The learning experiences are somewhat tougher to reflect upon but it is the motivators that require the action that will make or break a person and set the course for their future.

So don't lose your past because it holds your incentive for a better future!
