Letting go of the Past

In a bid to find happiness, Naomi at Seven Cherubs has written about letting go of the past.

When I think about it, I know she is stating the obvious.

I am far from perfect.  I have made many mistakes, as a teenager, as a young adult, and even in the last few years.

I've not always been respectful to myself, not always been respectful to others.  I guess as I age, I'd like to think I'm a little wiser, and now choose to make decisions differently to how I have before.

But the reality is I can not hold onto those things that may have defined me before, they do not define me now.  

So today, I will TRY to let go of the past, accept that my past has helped me to be who I am today, the good and the bad experiences, the good and the bad decisions.

I will focus on the now, on the future, what I can offer, who I can be to myself and to others, I have no doubt that this focus will help in my desire to seek happiness.

What do you do in a bid to seek happiness?
