"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 an advanced experience
that shall explain
and overlook the old.
~Ralph Waldo Emerson~
Say Goodbye
The most powerful anchor
on our potential to soar high in life
is the past.
The past contains
the dead weight of experience,
learned beliefs and all our mistakes.
Life cannot truly begin
until we are able to say goodbye
to the legacies of yesterday at will.
Like a filing cabinet,
the past is a resource
of information for learning,
but it is not a place to live.
When you go to work
do you spend your day
in the filing cabinet?
How often will you/did you
live in the past today?
Say goodbye
and make it final.
Saying farewell to yesterday,
last month and last year
is the sign of a person
who wants to live for today
and is truly alive
to all the possibilities
of 'the moment',
while fully aware
that all they think,
say and do right now,
creates tomorrow.
