my mother told me the other day "Maryse, its okay to keep the past in your heart, but keep the wind in your face."
Right now I'm trying so hard to move on in life. To leave the past behind me so that I can be free of the chains that hold me back.
I'm holding on with the fiercest grip to the things that once brought me so much joy. I must accept that things have changed. The memories of my laughter and happiness now bring me to tears. It hurts me to just think. I feel trapped inside my mind.
I know I have an inner strength that is more powerful then I believe it to be. It's time that I find it and use it.
I need to find my faith again. Faith that there is more to life then my sorrow, and that there is a God who loves me and will give me a place to hide and find comfort.
I have learned over the past few days that I can overcome my struggle of moving on and that...
"In a world that is constantly changing, the only constant we have is God."
Hey Maryse
ReplyDeleteYeah, its better to move on and laugh again.
God bless you.
Cheers
"Faith that there is more to life then my sorrow, and that there is a God who loves me and will give me a place to hide and find comfort."
ReplyDeleteYeah absolutely right.
Cheers
By the way,i discovered ur blog by clicking on the "Next Blog" option at the top. A great discovery it seems.
it's difficult to let go of our past. I'm the president of that club.
ReplyDeletebut i personally think it's okay to hold onto some of your past; just a tiny piece. keep it tucked away in the corner and revisit those memories when you feel the need to.
you can't just forget that it never happened. it did, and it shaped who you are today. you can learn so many things from the past.
just don't let them hold you back from doing the incredible things you're capable of. because you ARE capable. you just need to believe in yourself.
i know i do.
Thank You both so much!
ReplyDeleteDeanna: I totally agree with you on keeping a tiny part of it. That's what my mother was saying in her quote she gave me! It really helped.
