In response to The Daily Post’s writing prompt: “Out of Reach.”
Frankly speaking, as the days go by; which by the way is turning out to be one of my favourite statements, I have no regrets about Ex’s that have been left behind!
They came into my life at the point in time that they should have and we moved on at the juncture when the show was over and their time was up to move on. Not all relationships are meant to last forever even when they were absolutely delicious. Nothing in life has permanence!
In my opinion, no place is out of reach to travel to if you want to and set your mind to. It is all in one’s perspective! One place that I visited and stayed for a while and wanted to stay longer than I was entitled to was Geneva – Switzerland. I fell in love with that city; its mix of ancient and modern. No Swiss gentleman was forthcoming to sweep me off my feet and other things in life were beckoning to me, so I had to journey forth š
I don’t believe in dwelling on a past that is out of reach and done with. Thus, I don’t bother looking back at things that are not in my ability to resolve. Minor skirmishes with loved ones, where I need to apologize and make amends, I do that as swiftly as possible and try to mend fences.
I would rather continue my transformation by expending positive energy in creating better moments in the NOW. Moments that would translate to a better tomorrow when it arrives!
Yesterday is gone!
Today is now!
Tomorrow does not lie in my hands and will take care of itself!
Live within the moment and live it in full!

I really agree with this Jacqueline. I knnow I live too much in the past worry about things I have said or done, or on the other side panicking about the future and ‘what ifs,’ I need to just chill out and live in the present!

Please Edwina š It really is better. It has taken a lot to arrive at this conclusion for me and sometimes, when I do find myself lounging in the past, I make an effort to drag myself away, fighting and screaming into the present š

I noticed it on some blogs that I looked at yesterday and I wanted to click the like because I enjoyed what I read, but I didn’t find any, so I momentarily wondered if the owner set it that way. That explains it. I hope WordPress will sort it out asap
