We are Not Perfect

We are not perfect; we make mistakes and we do some stupid things sometimes. We’ve had some shares of not so good memories that we wish to forget.  

But even though we are not perfect, it is not an excuse for us not to strive to be better, because yes, we are imperfect but love is perfect.

So, what to do with not so good memories? You don't force yourself to forget, the more it will linger on. You let it die a natural death. Some you will forget; others will linger on for some time and others still will remain for the rest of our lives.

The power of memory. It can propel you to the future or it can imprison you to the past. The key is to let it be. There is a reason for everything, only that some things are beyond our reason. Our imperfect past lingers on, but love allows us to look back with compassion and with learnings, so that our present and our future will not be bounded by it. Love is perfect and if we have love then we are on the road to perfection.
