It
is very easy to say, "Forget your past". But it takes a lot of effort
and will power to forget it. Because whatever we are today, is because of
yesterday. After so many years, what I have learnt is, we cannot forget the
life that we have lived. However, we can try not to reiterate it to ourselves.
This will not only provide a peace of mind, but will also help in moving ahead
in life with a new energy and hope.
So,
whoever thinks that their life is finished, should in a way be happy. Because
you start a new sentence only after a full stop. And be thankful to god for
putting this full stop to a chapter in your life.
It
would be very uninteresting if you read a book without having any chapter in
it. A new chapter brings a new story. A new story brings a new excitement.
What
else do we need. We need excitement every now and then. So, instead of saying
that our life is finished, we should actually say, "thank god one chapter
is finished. From now I shall start a new chapter in my life".
And
there you go. Neither will you have to waste energy in forgetting your past
(which is never possible), nor will you feel downhearted. No matter how happy
you were in the past. Be a sport and don't worry. Everything, be it living or
non-living, has an end. So, whether your days were good or bad, start afresh.
There
"will" come a day when your book will end. So, let your life write as
many chapters as it wants. Just live. Never leave your book incomplete...
