Things happen. Life happens. It doesn’t always go the way we imagined or intended. We learn and change. Then, we try really hard to bury our past deep down inside so nobody else can dig it up. In the process, roots of the past settle deep within us and get compounded over time. Those roots affect our personal growth. How could they not? They are the roots that hold everything else upright.

Uproot your past. You can never fully and freely move forward until you face the past you’ve created and accept it for how it became. You must uproot your past and discover the truth of who you are. It’s a process. Often times a difficult and long process, but if you never decide to deal with where you’ve been, how can you possibly prepare yourself for where you are going?

As you work through your past you will learn things about yourself you never imagined and become stronger than you were before. Best of all, the reward is a life filled with peace and joy.
