Trashing Out

Most  of  us will definitely go through a phase of  life thinking of  the past. After all,  we are just human beings , we cannot be super extra ordinary without any emotions, be it good or bad. The question that always ticks on my mind is 'how long should I hang on to the past' ? I know it's going to be "FOREVER THE GOOD AND NEVER THE OTHER".  The first half is done without any efforts but think about the second half.

Sometimes, we will never get an answer for the questions we search for. The toughest thing on earth is being able to live with oneself ! I know this is so absurd but self consoling works most of the time. I think I have started to count on my blessings than the problems I've faced, like I said the second half of the phrase takes a lot of determination.

I have had very good memories growing up and hardly any bad. People always loved us, respected my parents, laughed together, cried with us, and so life was good. People I met later in life were different; they didn't love us as much, didn't care for my parents much, no laughing or crying together and life was a little rough.

From time to time pride comes in between demanding self dignity or worse yet self pity comes in between suggesting aloofness and indifference. Lately I feel there needs to be an end to such "dangling references" and so I have started the process of "trashing out" to clear the system. What good is it to hold on to the past that brings fresh tears and a broken spirit? It will only reprieve the joy of present, and the peace of future.

Unless we help ourselves to do the 'spring cleaning' , we cannot live in an healthy environment. I strongly believe that you would agree that renting a space in our mind and heart for the trash of the past makes does no good. It's time to trash out the garbage of life and travel light to seek fresh air and build a happy home.The karma train may arrive late but it will never miss it's  journey.
