Shit happens.
Unfortunately, shit decomposes as well, and the more you carry the shit that happened with you a long time ago, the more it will stink and ruin your life.
Old shit, be it memories from being dumped, insecurities, or something else that happened in the past, needs to be thrown in the trash and replaced with something fresh.
Otherwise, you’ll just be going in circles.

can you tell me where the bin is? please!?
what bin are you talking about?
oh, I was trying to be philosophical, sorry. “old shit […] needs to be thrown in the trash” – I cannot find it, you know – I am still carrying my “old shit”…
My bad, sorry. *slowpoke.jpg*
Most of the time it’s in Acceptance alley, but it may be different for some. Generally, owning up to one’s mistakes and not being in denial is the easiest way to find the bin.
😉 I hope that I can find happiness street after putting the bag into the bin in acceptance alley 🙂
