The past is not really the past - it is not over until we decide we will no longer allow its energy into our lives. The past is alive and well in the present if we are at war with our past through anger, regret, resentment, revenge, fear, anxiety, trauma, and grief.
We have to choose which side of the timeline we're on, the past or the present. While it may be tempting and emotionally satisfying to stay in the past, it won't be allow for any growth or expansion or transformation and the past exists in 3D.
Hint: 5D living is a forward looking paradigm, no room for the past except when it is being used as a stepping stone into a brighter and lighter life.
It's one of those tradeoffs we have to make.
Shine on and facing forward. That's why headlights are on the front of the car.
