The Bloody Doors Off

Be not the slave of your own past. Plunge into the sublime seas, dive deep and swim far, so you shall come back with self-respect, with new power, with advanced experience that shall explain and overlook the old.

We can learn to break the habit of accumulating and perpetuating old emotions an refrain from mentally dwelling on the past, regardless of whether something happened yesterday or thirty years ago. We can learn not to keep situations or events alive in our minds, but to return our attention continuously to the pristine, timeline present moment rather than be caught up in mental movie-making. Our very presence then becomes our identity, rather than our thoughts and emotions. Nothing ever happened in the past that can prevent  you from being present now, and if the past cannot prevent you from being present now…

What power does it have?

– Ralph Waldo Emerson
