"Let us fly from the past on the wings of faith."
~ James Lendall Basford ~
In order to step through a doorway into a new life, we have to pack up the past, both literally and figuratively. It's dusty and full of cobwebs, mold, and memories. We have to clean it and sort it, and throw some of it out. Before we can properly welcome what's to come, we have to let go of what has been, and that takes time and space, and a certain self-compassion.
And then we can step forth, knowing where we've been- all the ups and downs- and arriving at the threshold bright-eyed, and clear; forgiven, and fresh, and ready for the next chapter.
I take care of the past so it doesn't haunt me.
