Living in the past is always a bad idea; yet, on some level I believe the ones we love, even though not part of our present, are the very definition of who we are, the driving force of what we aspire to be, and at the end of the day, the past we must look to in order to improve who we will become. After all, we do not learn from what has not happened, but what has been, and what we will choose to keep or leave behind. Friendship, true friendship is never blind, but it holds the value of forgiveness - separating what we may or may have not done within the realm of mistakes..seeking the outcome of making us into better people. Tony C. Skye
About This Quote

In the context of friendship, being stuck in the past is not a good idea. In order to move forward, we need to be able to look at the past with a clear head and learn from it. In this way, we can learn from our mistakes and become a better person. Friendships thrive when people are able to forgive each other for past mistakes and move on to live a happier life.
