Old Paths

There is such attraction to the familiar. I recently had a conversation with a friend that, made me think a lot about "yesterday". It amazes me how memory, can select the good and forget the rest. The "Good Ole Days" weren't all good, but we seem to forget that.

I have gained much, since then, but there is a part of me that yearns for simpler more innocent times. I realized yesterday, that I must let go of the illusion of these better times, in light of the darker side of the reality of those times, and embrace the Now. The past like the future, is just a distraction from the truth and real Life and living. I can choose the story, or live the Real Adventure.

I do not regret my journey, nor do I choose to romanticize it, but instead, I choose to write it and co-create it in the present. The only thing that we bring from yesterday, are the lessons learned. The only thing we can borrow from tomorrow is Hope!

Lets Live while it is today, lets let go of illusions and stories and write new adventures!
