your past

there is something in your past that’s
holding you back,
something happen to you, a tragedy?
something you regret so much
that it stops you dead in your tracks,
something you did that immediately
shuts you down,
sexually abused,
a different home at every turn,
married then divorced,
think about this for a moment

every single choice, result and
experience has made you who you are,
you are wonderful as you are,
you would be a different person if you
had not had those experiences,
your travels define you, they are you

a single incident, no matter how considerable
or how unimportant, has made you who you are,
and if any of them were to change in even the most
miniscule manor you would be a different person

so take a chill pill
