I have a friend that says why dwell on the past (such as negative comments that were made, anything that upsets you) when the present and the future will bring so much joy. Do you agree with what my friend says and what is your reason for agreeing or disagreeing?
not_your_star34 answered Monday December 25 2006, 2:15 pm: I agree with your friend. Sure, the past wasn't all happy moments, and the future won't be any different. But, you can learn from your mistakes from the past and make sure that you don't do the same thing again. You can't change the past, so learn from it. Let your mistakes make the future better for you; Gain wisdom from them.
Also, (And I've learned this from experience) whenever it feels like there's no reason to have hope anymore, and you feel depressed and down... It usually means that something great and wonderful is just around the corner.
Life is full of good and bad times. But without the bad times, how would you know the difference?
xomichelle891xo answered Sunday December 24 2006, 9:47 pm: I definitely agree. Whats in the past is in the past and theres nothing you can do to change it. Dwelling on it will just drag you down and make you depressed. If someone says something about you, its easier to just forget about it and shake it off and keep moving forward! Live for whats in the future, not the past. [ xomichelle891xo's advice column | Ask xomichelle891xo A Question ]

There's one life to live so who cares what anyone else says and just live your life happy and carefree. No ones better than anyone else so their comments that upsets you shouldnt make you worry so much. Merry Christmas =] [ xlickablex's advice column | Ask xlickablex A Question ]
