I Wish I Could Leave The Past In The Past And Not Look Back

I have done many stupid things in the past. I would delete whole years of my life if I could. At least I want to delete them from my memory.

I know what reason says: 'the past cannot be changed, we must learn from it' It is the logical, rational thing to do. But sometimes something happens and past things come to your mind, and it is hard to accept what you did, and how stupid you were.

I wish I could be rational all the time. I know the rational thought will prevail in the end, but until it does, it hurts.
