When the past comes back in! Seriously, DON’T answer!
We all experience a moment, a lapse in judgment about ourselves and let our guard down or want something that ‘was.’ When the guard gate is open a rush of internal energy comes flooding in and that my friends is the first indicator telling you ‘YOUR’ ‘truth’.; Leave the past where it belongs, that is why they call it “The Past.”
When that gnawing feeling is eating away at you like a hungry stomach, you know deep within what the next step, the next leap is, letting go again. <sigh>
This past that aided your growth is coming up ‘AGAIN’ because that what self-inventory does; it rolls around within your aching soul, tugs at you until you address it, release it and move YOU on.
That old shit, the old stories, the past relationships are unpleasant and pleasant memories that bring up the shoulda, coulda, woulda moments… But YOU didn’t. 

All that baggage that hurt you, that you felt betrayed by that you bottled up as a bitter pill to swallow is to remind you, you can never go back. You were meant to move on to the new changes and challenges in your life. The past is your best teacher.
What to do? Honor yourself, and release whatever it is you let come back in with love. Because without that gentle reminder of what used to be and what truly is… just opened you up to allow the light, the Divine wisdom to download some necessary information for your evolution.
This time, you are going to feel a WHOLE lot better about yourself because that Bitter pill is now the Better pill, easy to swallow.
