Sadly, The Latter

Daily writing prompt
Do you spend more time thinking about the future or the past? Why?

My past shapes the woman I am today. I try hard not to, but things come up that remind me of what my life was growing up. I remember the bad relationships, the heartache, the anger. My frustrations in life.

I look to my present… and how a lot of the problems of the past are gone…

But the memories don’t fade.

They never leave.

As I noted in a prior post, I’m not as socialized as I should have been.

The future is something I look forward to, but the past is never gone.

Not fully.

~J. Lyst
