Flash Back || When Moving Forward Means Leaving The Past Behind

Flash Back…

To a time when everything felt so complicated and life seemed hell bent on breaking me down.

I haven’t been doing a lot of reminiscing lately but the other night I let the music take me back,

The rain is falling on my window pane
But we are hiding in a safer place
Under covers staying safe and warm
You give me feelings that I adore

With every word Colbie Caillat uttered, I let my thoughts wander
and I stayed there cowering and letting the memories wash over me.

What’s it with we humans and pain anyways?
Why exactly do we look backwards instead of enjoying the now and focusing on the beautiful things that lie ahead?

I’m not sure but here’s to moving on and letting go of the past,
To revelling in the now,
And to the beauty of second chances.
