We might die from medication, but we sure killed all the pain

May 19, 2005 00:56

I've been thinking alot lately about the idea of moving on from the past. In what seems to be the pattern for all things in life, we get conflicting and contrasting signals. Love what you had, but leave it behind. Let go of the past, but never forget. It's the same problem we have when someone dies because the past is just the collective death of ( Read more... )

Yes it is true that in cases of death and probably others, you can not relive your past, but not all things in your past are "gone and vanished". The difference between those deceased and those who are just memories to you, is that those people, those memories, everything in your past did not just disappar because you said they did. They are still there, and it's your own choice to pretend that they aren't. You have that choice to do something about it and to not let those memories die. You can't pretend those people that you had those :glorious: times with just dropped off the face of the planet. So with that perspective I would have to disagree with you on that last statement that your past can never be your future. It can be true, but in the instinces that you mentioned, your past can most definately be your future if you'd let it.

the past is gone. it's behind you for a reason, and if you can't ;let it go, it's your own fault.

it takes a while to understand the beauty of letting go -KH

fuck the past. if you're always looking behind you, a lot of people will pass you by. or, you'll walk into a telephone pole.

if you love someone in your past, leave it at tht. don't dwell on it, it can drive you insane.

and dammit, be like everyone else-= your updates are way too long and poetic and insightful to read. it's not the riyath i know and i don't bother reading em.

Yep you've gotta be a guy who left that comment. typical response from a guy..

Re: gotta be a guy xshadowmanx May 23 2005, 14:05:31 UTC

Or a meaningful response from a guy who actually knows what it's like to experience hurt from relationships, and knows how to move on. Dan's been there.

You aren't the only one that's been hurt in your life..everyone does but you know what that's life so get over it.

Let's clear up a few things, shall we? "Boys" like Dan have gone through more in their lives than many men. People do get hurt in their lives, and they move on from it. Why would you want to go back to your past, to times you've been hurt?

It's funny how much you sound like my ex-girlfriend, who I don't want in my life, which is exactly what I told her. Who happens to have a cousin Gina. Go figure.

Your past can't be your future. Why? Simply because the experiences of the past are dead and can only live on in memories and relics. We lose a little life each day. You have to look to the future, 'cause in reality, it's all you've got.

ok..let's talk...SHALL WE? xshadowmanx May 25 2005, 17:17:31 UTC

That's cool that you think I'm your ex girlfriend and congrats that you told her you don't want her in your life.. Ask me if I care.. I don't think most of your readers care either. Nobody is trying to be "in" your life right now...just posting comments on a livejournal since that is what the purpose of the journal and posts are...for people to read your journal, and post what they think based on what they read. And why is it that everytime someone anonymous posts in your journal that you don't like, you think it "sounds like your ex girlfriend"? If you've gone through so much in your life then why do you assume everytime that it's her? Sounds like you need to realize that life doesn't always go your way, and that your ex-girlfriend isn't the only person in the world who disagrees with the things you say and do. And I'm sure your ex girlfriend isn't stupid enough to have her cousin post in your live journal..please give yourself a little more credit for the girls you chose to date. And by the way your first sentence..about Dan going ( ... )
