The past is a strange thing.
It doesn’t exist anymore.
And yet we can carry it around for decades.
An old mistake.
A conversation we wish had gone differently.
Something someone did to us.
Something we did to someone else.
We replay it, rewrite it, argue with it.
Sometimes we even let it tell us who we are.
But the past has no hands.
It cannot reach into this moment and grab us.
We have to carry it here.
That doesn’t mean forgetting.
Our scars matter.
Our memories matter.
The lessons certainly matter.
But there’s a difference between learning from yesterday and living there.
Maybe that’s another part of being here now.
We bring the lesson.
We bring the love.
We bring the people and places that helped make us who we are.
But we don’t have to drag every old argument, regret, and disappointment along with us.
The past already had its moment.
This one belongs to us now.
Good evening, friends.
