Let go of past regrets and mistakes from "summary" of Light From Many Lamps by Lillian Watson
Regrets and mistakes are a part of life, like the shadows that follow us on a sunny day. They whisper in our ears, reminding us of what we did wrong, what we should have done differently. But dwelling on the past, clinging to those regrets like a drowning man to a life raft, only serves to keep us from moving forward. We cannot change the past, no matter how much we wish we could. We cannot go back and undo the mistakes we made, the words we said in anger, the choices that led us down the wrong path. All we can do is learn from them, take them as lessons to guide us on our journey ahead. Letting go of past regrets and mistakes is like releasing a heavy burden we have been carrying on our shoulders. It is like opening a window in a stuffy room, letting in the fresh air and the sunlight. It is a gift we give ourselves, a second chance to start anew, to make different choices, to create a brighter future. When we let go of past regrets and mistakes, we free ourselves from the chains that bind us to the past. We open ourselves up to new possibilities, new adventures, new experiences. We give ourselves permission to forgive ourselves, to be kind to ourselves, to love ourselves despite our imperfections. So, let go of past regrets and mistakes. Embrace the present moment, with all its joys and sorrows. Look ahead to the future with hope and courage. And remember, as the poet Rumi said, “Yesterday I was clever, so I wanted to change the world. Today I am wise, so I am changing myself.”
