the entry that picks up from where i left off

i can neither confirm nor deny the veracity of this statement, but it's completely asinine in my opinion. "to move on in life, one has to discard what he was burdened with."

if we do discard our past baggages, might we not just fall back into the very spiral we were trying to get out from, just because we failed to reflect and recall to steer away from these very faux pas that we committed?

here's the thing: our failures/mistakes/regrets/oversights/etc serve as pivots in our lives. they are flashing beacons of reminders not to commit these very same mishaps later on. to shrug them off nonchalantly would just be making ourselves susceptible to repeat this vicious cycle all over again.

thank god we do not badger ourselves everyday with conundrums of such. but if only there was something to help us to remember. someone get me some mental post-it pads!!
