Dear one
We all know the saying
Let the past go
Yet we often turn back
to unhappy people and memories
cannot help but speak of old misfortunes
and let negative feelings spread
Many are unhappy
because they cannot let go of past sorrows
They are only fighting against themselves
Dear one
Life favors no one
Time passes for all
Your happiness in the future
depends on —
whether you truly
let the past go
No more looking back
No more crying out
No more complaining
No more drowning in pain
No more dwelling in doubt
No more keeping score
No more holding resentment
Only when you
forgive yourself
will life
set you free
Whatever the past held
now gone
May you let go of pain
and keep all joy
We must walk forward
look ahead
To forgive others
to be kind to yourself
Let the past go
and the future holds promise
Time waits for no one
Hold your head high
walk toward the light
and live joyfully
This is your greatest glory
May you dear one
through all the years
shine like a beam of light
and become a better you each day
