I can't help it, but I agree completely that it's pointless to rehash things again and again that you obviously can't change.KatBouskahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11556451375792958743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1069784873554550905.post-21559471366654724882014-05-17T11:00:28.778-05:002014-05-17T11:00:28.778-05:00I tell our clients at work that recovery (and life...I tell our clients at work that recovery (and life!) is like a journey down a road. Now, imagine if you had to carry dozens of bags and suitcases with you... That would be a hard trip! So, we have to leave behind that old stuff, so we can move more easily to the future.Sam_I_amhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16556492217352199922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1069784873554550905.post-64896670489849742042014-05-16T13:06:27.698-05:002014-05-16T13:06:27.698-05:00Great quote.

He said, "Resentment is setting myself on fire in the hopes that the smoke will bother you." I've heard several variations of that statement before...but I liked his wording for it best!Stephanie Farishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10461865229341760836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1069784873554550905.post-90999818789072965362014-05-15T20:44:18.807-05:002014-05-15T20:44:18.807-05:00So true about regrets; I have several that I'm...So true about regrets; I have several that I'm trying to work through and let go. I told my kids when they were growing up that we can all learn from mistakes so as not to repeat the same stuff again in the futue, but sometimes I tend to dwell on them more than I should. Good thoughts!<br /><br />bettybettyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06323135450742337670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1069784873554550905.post-9046865511543998162014-05-15T15:05:13.354-05:002014-05-15T15:05:13.354-05:00I like that quote.
