For a long time now I've been consumed with wanting my past to float away to make room for my future. But I realize now that that's not how it works.
You have to embrace every messy aspect of your life in order to move past it.
And yes, it will at times be awful. It will feel like you are reliving the parts of your existence that you never wanted to think about again.
But the art of letting go means not letting go at all. It means moving past it.
