One cannot and must not try to erase the past merely because it does not fit the present.

About This Quote

The past cannot be erased by simply wishing it away or wishing to make it fit into your current situation because no matter how hard you try, the past will always be there. The only way to truly erase the past is to let it go and accept it for what it was.
