Now I understand.

It was from another post.

This article is going on three years old!

Anyway, thanks for finding it. Way back when!

We are indeed old buds. I’ve followed your blog since Dec. 2007 or Jan. 2008, while I was going through the Blog Mastermind course. I checked back through my tweets and it was about 2 years ago and I posted it from Twitterbar in Firefox. It was long before Tweetmeme. I stumbled it through the toolbar. I’ve had that installed since Aug. 2007.

I read this article by clicking on a related article to a later post. I enjoyed what I was reading and clicked on some more related articles for awhile to read more.

To those who don’t have the related articles plugin, related articles do get people to read more of your blog. I suggest installing it if you haven’t. It doesn’t work on all themes, however, or at least it didn’t. I don’t have it activated on all my blogs and I need to go back and see if it will work now that we have had several new versions of WP since I last tried it.

Did we know each other almost two years ago when I wrote this post?

Now it feels as though I have known you forever. One of my closest buds.

At that time, I had been blogging for perhaps a year – so if you read
you were one of the few who were not relatives.

Thanks for your tremendous support. And for your tweet and stumble. It is so important to have other bloggers who support you and encourage.

So – Better late.

This is so important – a quote from your comment.

“If your past changed you so much that you can never be your old normal self again, you still have to put it away and find a new normal.”

Life changes us with its ups and downs. It is important to realize that we can really never go back and do it over.

There is a new normal – and it is today.

I read this post when you first published it. I’m shocked I didn’t comment then. I tweeted and stumbled it.

It’s so true. You have a heavy load to bear unless you let go of your past and let it stay put away with no unrealistic ideas about resurrecting it. If your past changed you so much that you can never be your old normal self again, you still have to put it away and find a new normal.

Much love,
Sherri

OK You are officially promoted to the head of the class.

Now write us a post on how you were able to -

“Don’t relive it over and over again. Nothing comes out of that…”

And I am not kidding on that.

If it does not fit with your topic, write a guest post here. I would be honored to have you.

Read the comments here.

As you can see, you are not alone in your ability to let go of things that do not serve you.

Welcome to the Club!

Who said it was easy?

One technique someone suggested to me was to picture the event or person and then move it in your mind behind you.

I have tried it. It seems to get rid of it for a while anyway.

Let me know if it works for you.
