I'm with you on this one...

I knw living in the past is not a good thing and that I should live for the now...

But the past always seems to creep up on me but only cause I let it...

You're right it all depends on how you look upon things.

Good thought provoking write.

Yes I still go back to the past when I am down.
And I know I should let go,but its in the past my happy memories reside. Understand this poem very well. You wrote it as honestly and truthfully as it is. And yes you are right, we should move on, just wish I had the courage at the moment.Thank you. Sue

Shari, Very honest write here. Simple and to the point. Peace, Laura
