Living Memories

I have been trying to get myself on track for several weeks now. I am more active, I feel a small bubbling of determination in my gut nowadays, I even have improved my overall hygiene (everyone including myself is grateful for that). I am really beginning to feel that I can do some of the things that I set my mind to, but the last few days some problems from my past have reestablished their foothold on my life. While I try to focus on me, the guilt of what I have left behind keeps me tethered to the what used to be.

I know this is all a part of "growing up" it just seems a little unfair any way I look at it. People say don't dwell in the past but what should one do when the past is part of your current life?

...oh well in a few days this won't matter hopefully, because it will be back to the real world, and back to the drawing board.
