"Letting go is not forgetting. It's about moving forward without anger, regret, or fear"
- Yung Pueblo
About this Quote
This quote by Yung Pueblo speaks with the idea of letting go of the past and not enabling it to define our present or future. It is not about forgetting the past, however rather about gaining from it and not allowing it to manage our emotions. Letting go has to do with understanding that the past remains in the past which we can move forward without being weighed down by anger, remorse, or worry. It is about understanding that we can learn from our mistakes and use them to make much better decisions in the future. It has to do with comprehending that we can be pleased and effective without being held back by our past. Releasing is about understanding that we can create a much better future for ourselves and that we can be free from the pain of the past.
