Letting Go of the Past

Is it truly possible to let go of hurts and disappointments from your past and trust again? If you can't/won't/don't, then please explain to me how do you expect to have a trustworthy relationship in the present or future? I don't understand why people hold onto things that blocks their growth and ruins their current personal or professional relationships. Aren't you making yourself a slave to your negative experiences? How is that working out for you? Wouldn't it be more productive to simply keep the lesson but continue to move forward with an open heart, mind or outlook? Can someone tell me what does one gain by holding onto the negative? How can you truly have a relationship without completely trusting the person that you claim to love? How can you have a profitable and productive business relationship without some level of trust in your partner? It seems to me that holding onto the bad prohibits you from receiving the good.


Up until recently, I never had a good experience in my romantic relationships. But I choose to not enslaved myself to those negative experiences. Instead, I choose to look for the positive lessons in those experiences, let go of the pain and moved forward with a pure heart judging my loved one not by what the previous person did but by his character and how he treats me. The man that I am in a relationship with, I love very much and trust him completely in spite of what others have done in my past. For me, that is the only way to have a loving and successful relationship with him.


What I know for sure is that Letting Go of The Past, is the only way to receive the Blessings that God has in store for me in the present and in the future. Why don't you try it?

Peace & Love,
