The Present in the Past
GS: The
past is always open to interpretation as the only part of the past that
actually exists is the part you hold onto in memory in the present moment. These
parts of your past are chosen by you and are fed energy by you here in the now.
Being fed energy, these pieces of your past can grow, morph or change as your
viewpoint on your past changes. This can
be used as a learning tool for the evolving soul or as a method of browbeating
yourself for perceived failures or inadequacies. This is always your choice.
Thus you can experience a trauma and in your memory of this trauma learn to
release the feelings that were generated and held onto and move your viewpoint
from hurt and anger into one of love and acceptance through forgiveness. Or you
can continue to focus on the trauma, feeding the trauma more energy as you
remember, continuing the trauma’s effect in your present life and perpetuating
the sorrow, rage and violation into your daily life. The willingness to
consider different perspectives, different choices, different ways to direct
your thoughts is always the first step to a happier present. Allowing the gift
that all experiences can give to come forth even over a traumatic event is a
sure way to heal. There is always a gift, something to be learned or realized
that the trauma played out for you in graphic detail. Choosing the extent of
the past’s influence upon you is determined by you in the here and now. Choose
wisely for a happier life.
