Prisoner of Past !!

Tomorrow is dream, yesterday was yours, all the moments of memories are still intact in safe locker of heart.

The acceptance of past memories and living in them are not weak heart’s job. One who still squeeze those good moments of memories and enjoy them are one among them who are strongest.

It may be a confession but I have always kept a part of my past with me. I have never been confident and sure about tomorrow. Life has taught me on every step that what you dream of is still not yours. Hold on to memories what you had and then dream for tomorrow. You never know when tomorrow is not even worth yesterday.

We all dream and dream so much that literally what we have or had, throw away in pile of garbage just in expectation of better dream. We fail to accept, enjoy, cherish and make peace with what we had or have. Dreaming for better was never and will never be wrong but kicking present in hope of better tomorrow would only lead to nightmares not dreams.

Our emotions, feelings and demands have become slaves of Needs. Needs which we wish to fulfill by dreaming better tomorrow than focusing on present or reliving what we have or had in our hand. This has only led to more frustrated and lonely world. Today, you won’t find a single person who would like to invest time on you or emotions without expectation of needs being fulfilled. Be it boy or girl all have inadvertently and unknowingly become slaves of better tomorrow.

Hope and faith is strongest feeling one could have. But why not hope and have faith in improving present than hoping only for better dreams of tomorrow. History knows, all those communities, societies, kingdoms, leaders, kings and civilizations have perished who failed to keep hope and faith in present and denied to learn from past.

Ones who don’t find solace in their past, ones who don’t wish to relive past, ones who don’t accept past, ones who disregard past and only dreams of better tomorrow have had fallen on their face.

I am happy being a prisoner of past than hollow believer of tomorrow’s dream. Yesterday was mine, the moments were mine and I can only claim and seek happiness in what I have or had. Why should I leave all just to hope for better, which may not even exist.

And yes a peaceful past becomes strongest foundation for tomorrow’s dream. A house is built brick by brick then comes roof. Roof will cease to exist without those small bricks. And past memories, yesterday’s moments are those small bricks of foundation which helps in building stronger and long lasting roof.

So when someone ask’s or complains that why you still carry past then all I do is laugh and say inside that it’s Β past which is carrying me and has brought me to where I stand πŸ™‚

I have no qualms and complains, the ghost of my past give me company when hope for better tomorrow leaves me in loneliness. The day my past realigns with my tomorrow, tomorrow will know what I went through in my past and what all i wanted and had in past, that day dreams will not remain dreams anymore. they would be reality to live for.

So yes, I would only tell you to hope, have faith in your past. Make a peace with it, accept what all you had and start using it as a platform.

Even the best of the chocolates and sweetest candies have wrapper to take out before eating. Same goes with past, take out the bad memories and enjoy the good moments. They are still yours and no one can take it away from you. That’s your only property where no one put a claim.

Always better to be a prisoner of past for a while than be chaser of dreams in tomorrow.
