they say past is past. we need to move on to see the future., but how can we move on when our past is the only thing we ever wanted in the future?

been there done that, been in the slum for sometime. i guess we just hav to make a choice. moving on doesn't mean that u hav to forget what u had, it's just that we have to learn to accept things the way they are & pick up & absorb things to be learned. put it this way, everything has a purpose, just think that when people leave u they r not entwined to u, their part in ur book of life is over, something better & grand will come as replacement. god knows what's best for you. just have faith....

it seems this question involves a 'person'... if so, for me it's true. maybe we've been happy in that past and we want to experience it again in the future... but then again past is past and we can't undo happenings... maybe the best thing we can do now is to cherish things in the past, whether good or bad. happenings in the past are for me a privilege to be thanked to.

yeah this somehow involves a person.. we all know that it really hurts the past to those heartbroken.. But you are right, past are to be cherished and thank for.. Because of it, we became more disciplined and a better one.. We wish not to commit or experience the same mistake as of the past.

This is very important because If we want to do anything in future we should forget about the past incidents to built confidence in omeself.But at the same time we should consider past events where we have lost and prevent the things which are not good for ourself...

well that's a tough one but you have to carve a new road for yourself..i had to do that when i got divorced and it was painful..cos you don't get married with the intention of divorcing..11 years of trying gone to waist..but i did make a new life..and even though i a struggling betwen two countries..i see the future laced with many possibilities and a beautiful man in my life who is giving me a lot of happiness i couldn't have ever dreamed of..it is possible..but only you can make it happen..it is painful though the process and you have to give yourself time to mourn..whatever the situation was..

sad to hear that side of your life..Thanks beacuse you had recovered from that past.. yep sometimes we have to cry to release the feeling and eventually look forward for a beautiful tomorrow.. But still in the end as what every people do - making a conversation regarding his past, past is still difficult not to remember.. We learned from it

In IT.....Then make a loop! It is a program that has a loop to go back to the past events until you reach what you long for... But life is not a software program...people come, people go, baby from womb..body to tomb.... earth itself moves. Let go bro, learn from your past and craete a better future. some people who lives in the past are now in asylum. The very first step to moving on...is letting go. Don't let good oppurtunities and good future passes you by beacuse you are focused in the past. :)
