Spotlight art contest #1: The Past Life

Everyone has a past life. It may be good it may be bad. Most people tend to hold on to the good in their past life while others struggle to make do with the bad in theirs. Truth be told, it is not usually very easy to let go of the past. Most times we have pleasant memories which one wishes to experience all days of his life while at times the horrid memories keep on coming back like an alarm clock on daily repeat.
Life itself doesn't treat everyone fairly that's why everyone has to experience the good and the bad throughout their days on earth. But this doesn't mean one should only focus on the past or won't act to make impacts to the future. In fact most times we are the ones that determine our fate. A time comes when we realise that it is time to go on, a time to forget about what has happened, a time to reflect and a time to influence the future to our betterment. But yet still the past comes into play and we begin to wonder,
"How do we pick up the threads of
an old life? How do we go on when
in our hearts when in our hearts we
begin to understand that there's no
going back?
When this thoughts come to our minds, we realise that they are some things time cannot mend, some hurts that eat deep into our bone marrow leaving scars on the skin.
But this is time to be strong, this is the time we apply faith and courage, the time we fight for what we believe in and trust me this is when we make impacts to our future as long as we make the right decisions.
