Sometimes we are very convinced that what we went through needs to be re-lived so we end up going back and forth to the demons of the past and eventually we fail to get over them.

Stephen Richards
About This Quote

The tragic truth of the matter is that we should not be so obsessed with whether or not we have gotten over our past. There’s no point in obsessing over something that will happen to you no matter what you do. It’s not your job to get over it, it’s your job to move forward. The only way to get over something is to let it go, and the only way to let go of something is to move on.
