The Mind Is Limitless

If you are reading this I would like to to say that you are amazing in so many ways and that I hope you know you are very much loved. And please don’t let anyone ever convince you otherwise.　

Good night, or day, where every you are, whenever you’re reading it.

I hope you have a lovely time, and when you go to bed, that you have sweet dreams. I hope whatever’s bothering you right now works out. Please remember that I love you, and that if something’s bothering you or you’re not sure or feel alone or just need to rant and want someone to listen, that I’m here. The ask box is always open. Anonymous is always open should you need it. Remember that I really do not mind, and I don’t just say this to be polite, I really don’t mind listening to people rant.

Regardless of your ethnicity or sexuality and/or gender or political views or how many cats you have, or if you even like cats, that you’re human and your life is yours, and if you need help, I shall help. Please remember that you are expected to have your flaws and are perfect the way you are, and that I’m not saying this to be cheesy and polite either, I mean it. Remember that as humans we all make mistakes, so don’t torture yourself over the past and regrets and ‘if’s. Learn from it, forgive yourself, move on. Remember to not do it again.

We blame so many things, so many mistakes in the past, on ourselves and live in eternal regret letting our guilt drag us back and not moving forward. That’s actually quite sad, really. Because if you think about it, we’re all human. You can’t expect yourself to be without flaws and not mistakes. It’s the mistakes that we make that makes us human, see? That we make mistakes, fall, and get up over and over. The point is that every time we fall and get up, we learn from it and so every new time we know a bit more of what not to do so that we know what to do, yeah? Life is a bit like a huge experiment of baby steps. We try things and fail so we know what doesn’t work so that then we know what will.

Do I have regrets, yeah, I do. But I try to let the past be the past because, like they say, there’s no point crying over spilled milk. And in the same way, there’s no point torturing yourself for something that’s already done, because it’s not going to change. And there isn’t really a point in wanting it changed because, if you think about it, if you hadn’t made the mistake, you wouldn’t have the experience you do now. You are older, better, wiser for what you’ve been through, and that’s always a good thing. To grow, to learn, to become better and improve on yourself. And if you think about it, if it changed, you wouldn’t be the person you are now, with what you have now. If you’d made a different choice or something different had happened, perhaps you wouldn’t have met someone, or seen something, or done something you can’t bear to not have done or met or seen now, in this point in your life, knowing what you’d have missed.

There are no good or bad choices, only other ones. Even inherently ‘bad’ choices and decisions may end up being good ones if you admit you messed up and learn a lesson and then become a better person because of it. That’s the important bit. I can’t say it enough. It was bad. Learn from it. Move on.

Don’t let your past drag you down. Do not forget it- that would be disastrous and pointless, to say the least- but do not let it keep you away from fully appreciating your present and your future and the good that you are capable of, despite some things in your past. Do not hold your past against yourself if you’re a different person now and know it.
