I don't like thinking about the past a lot. At all. You just never know what you are going to bring back to life in the time of reflection. It go zombie mood a.k.a. refusing to die and trying to eat your brain all the time... it can get scary. Especially if you don't handle it accurately. But there are some things worth remembering. Strange as it may sound, sometimes it is good to remember being in pain. Being angry. Feeling empty, rejected and etc etc. The important thing is not to marinate in these feelings. Its like sinking sand. If you move too much in it, you will go down and it will be hard to get out. Especially when you're feeling alone. When no one knows how you feel. What you're going through. Or maybe they do but they are too caught up in their own life to really take notice ; let alone give sound advice. But like I was saying, sometimes it is good to remember the feelings in a sense you can use selective ingredients of the experience to help someone who is going through what you went through.
It is written that "there is nothing new under the sun."
I'm on this amazing journey.When I thought I was in this sinking sand with no hope of getting out... Jesus found me. He found me and loved me enough where I was at- to pull me out of my own mess. He loved me enough to not leave me there unlike my own blood in this world. And now, I'm feeling like I'm seeing the sun for the first time in a long time. Memories that held me in bondage has lost its grip. I'm free to move. Free to dance. Free to sing. No sinking sand.It is written that "there is nothing new under the sun."
Old hymns say it best. Good post.
