I found myself having to come to terms with the fact that I’m a different person than my “younger self” because of those experiences. I am very very different now. I’ve given myself permission to move on with life. I still cherish the memories of my past self, but I’m not that anymore and it’s just time to step into life on these new terms. Maybe I’ll change back at some point? But I certainly don’t have to. I’ve found just such… power? In being able to move on in life. I try to not disregard the importance of the past, but from my perspective right now, the present is the most important and relevant part of our life.
