Does it affect us to linger in the past?

Isn’t it strange how at one point you could have shared the most intense and deepest emotions with a certain individual, then before you know it, all is DEAD. Being that your surroundings overpowered or for any matter as to why things plummeted to the abysmal relationship you now have with that person, it is , at times, impossible to refrain from reminiscing in the bliss that was once conjured from any second he or she spent with you. Even the strongest crumble with the immensity of this emotion, even more so when you know all chances of returning to Nirvana have clearly vanished and it is certain that the reciprocation of what you feel may never come forth. Should we relinquish ourselves from these memories or are these memories merely the hope needed to acquire what you once had? Is it so wrong to want them back? Is it so wrong to dwell? Opinions?

    I ve done it i have many times dwelled on the past for way to long into my future and there is a ceritan point where you should just move on learn from it since its to late to change it. though i have to force myself too.

    Easier said than done…I\’ve attempted to \”force\” myself into believing that I had found someone better and someone who deserved me, though it ended in my hurting that person. It\’s been months and I\’ve yet to reach anywhere near the point of letting go. It kills me somedays. He’s all I think about.
