Memories

Certain things chase you, memories, ideas, failures, and no matter how fast you try and escape, they find you. 

You think: If only I had done that differently. 

You think: If only I had said something else. 

You think: If only I had tried harder! 

Stop it. 

You can’t outrun the past, or your mistakes, or anything that made you who you are. 

So hold on to the good memories and maybe, just maybe, the bad ones won’t hurt as much.
