To all those who wish to listen, but mostly to myself…



Past

I love the saying : “All things happen for a reason.”
Truth is, I don’t really know if that’s the case.

What I do know is, that everything that has happened, couldn’t have happened any other way, for the simple reason that it didn’t.
So there’s really no point in living in a world of alternative outcomes and ‘what-ifs’.
There’s also no point in trying to wonder how valuable things that happened actually were. The same way that there’s no point in trying to undo or belittle the way things made you feel in the past. ‘Cause in retrospect, it’s always easy to judge and to rationalize things.

In the moment those things happened, those things were the undoubted and only possible truth. Those things could have only happened and existed at that moment in time. With you being who you were at that moment and the situation being as it was.

It’s probably best to try to look at things that happened in the past as objectively as possible and try not to look at those things out of our current perspectives in order to judge them. There’s no point. Because today, we’re not the same people, and situations aren’t the same, as we, as they, were back then.
In a perfect world I think we would try to take what we could learn from past situations, and try to create the best possible future.

To only live in a perfect world…
