Learn to forget the past

The word "Forget" sounds lightweight, but it actually weighs a thousand pounds. "Forgetting" is not easy, especially for those who hurt us.

The misery of human life is often entangled in thoughts because of these words: Let go of it, think uninformed, see not clearly, and cannot forget.

During a lifetime, one can meet so many people, experience so many bittersweet stories. But if everything was kept in their hearts, how tiring would it be?  Especially the nostalgia or the obsession often tends to reappear, making us sink in sad emotions, which is hard to let go of. That is called the past and one cannot forget.

To be happy, we need to put aside the past, strive for the present fully so that in the future, when looking back at the present all the beautiful memories have become that pass. Now the past is all happy moments and satisfaction.  Let's cherish each day we live because this is the true meaning of life. The past can be a good lesson for our future, but it should not be a burden to bear throughout life. So what can be forgotten should be forgotten, so that not only will our heart will be peaceful but also our mind will be enlightened. Your letting go of the past is a great gift to yourself.

Everyone is born and raised. No one will always be lucky enough to have success the first time they do it. Edison failed thousands of times before making the light bulb, but what he got after each failure was experience for the next experiment. But people only know him when the light bulb was actually made, and that process of failure is not well known. So when you try and still have no success, use it as a springboard to try harder in the present and build the present for the best.

So what is the word "forget" here?  If the past failures are the springboard of future success, why do we still forget the past? However, “Forgetting" here is forgetting the feelings of sadness, pain, and depression when failing, so that you always maintain your ideals, believe in yourself, and give yourself more motivation to dare to continue to fail the next time.

There is an English saying that "Freedom is not free”. Yes, everything we have in life is obtained by ourselves. However, there are also things that are destined not to belong to us, like someone who does not love us. Forget about the person who doesn't love us and look around us; there are still more worthy people. Forget about a desire too far out of reach to have peace of mind; instead enjoy the achievements of the present.

Happiness almost always exists in small things, maybe just a beautiful morning seeing the light in the sky, or maybe a friendly smile from a passerby when suddenly meeting each other's eyes. There is no need for high aspirations. Choose a simple life, strive for positive things and know how to ignore aspirations and ambitions that make us no longer ourselves.

The biggest obstacle between you and your happiness is wishing. You always wish for bigger things, different things, the things you don't have for the best. This is a completely wrong mentality. You have the right to dream, the right to strive for that dream. But that does not mean that those dreams are the only things that deserve to be grasped by you.

Life is multifaceted, and things need to be seen in many directions to get the best judgment. Think about when you are old, weak, and sick. What is the most important thing for you to preserve? Is it family love? Fame and fortune cannot be brought with you after death. True friends are ready to be friends both in difficult times and in happy times.

The answer is already in your heart. What you have to do is just grasp it boldly. "Forget" the frivolous things and focus on a good future with a sincere more conscientious attitude.

When our mind is peaceful, our life is immediately peaceful.
