Let go of the past

There comes a time when people hurt you so badly that you curl up in a ball and cry and when you have cried till there are no more tears, you began building walls around you.You start creating this mental and emotional picture that if you don't let anyone in anymore then you are safe.You sit and not just plan but rather you plot of how to make sure no one ever hurts you again.We have all been there.
The thing is the forts we built break someday and we find ourselves exposed.Your mind begins seeing every new person as a threat and the alarms begin
to ring continuously. We find ourselves being triggered by little thing and memories of the past.It begins to feel like the ghost of the past are haunting you and you can't seem to shake them.

Sometimes we need to just have faith in the new beginnings with the new people.There is a reason why they managed to get past the walls.It may feel like they came charging in and everything is going out of balance but it is only fair to give them a chance.The truth is people will hurt you but one day someone worthy will come along and he /she will be worth everything and more.
We can not protect ourselves by locking ourselves in, that does more damage than good.People are different and you can't let new people pay for the mistake of the people who hurt us in the past. Find your happiness again, trust me once you let go of the stupidity the frog did(who you thought was a prince) a real prince will ride in.It took a while to understand the beauty of letting go but I finally did.

Once you let go of the past something greater comes along.If you are still holding on to the past, you are missing out on your present.You can't change the past so why risk losing a better future for it? Let it go
