I'm done romanticizing the shit from my past. I screwed up.

If we were judged by the worst things we've ever done, we'd all be considered horrible people. Well, most of us, anyhow. Certainly I would be.

But remember, it's all of that past, good and bad, and how we've grown, that help make us the (hopefully) better people we are today. So honor your past, all of it, and grow to the future without beating yourself up about what's behind you (easier said than done, I know).

I wish you well.
