"Always Enough, Never Too Much"

Every time when I come across my past - not that I do very often - it'd bring me back to that memories or rather call it experience I had back then. I moved on, I let go, yes I do. It's just that, it made me question why did it happen that way. Why people have to get hurt (sooo much) in the process like this. What did I learn from it. Where has it led me from then and what did it contribute to my life today. A lot of question...a lot of lingering. I guess one can't really let go of the past just like that. 

I bought a book recently entitled "Always Enough, Never Too Much" by Jess Connolly and Hayley Morgan. It's some kind of a motivational book that contains encouraging stories. Begun with the word "You Are Always Enough" and goes with different situation in every story. So happen the first one says "Even When You Make Mistakes". It was a short one - the content - but I found it very meaningful and says a lot about what have been bothering me every time. Nice isn't it? To have the nature answers to your doubts unexpectedly in an unexpected way. The way it was put helps me to see it was never meant to be a bad experience. Yes, it was not so pleasant but it was not to crush you. Every one makes mistake. Even when you have been very careful, you can still make mistakes. But how you choose to react to it, to respond to it, that's the skill one has to understand.

I guess living in the past where mistakes happened and impacted your life, isn't that bad at all. I mean, it shaped you into the person you are today. Did you turn into someone mean and vicious? Did you become gentler and loving? Either way, you survived the storm. It didn't kill you therefore, you are stronger!
