All of these people out here rely solely on your past to build up trust. Don't even tell me that you haven't done something that you've regretted before. Something that was completely stupid you can't even believe yourself. Something that was horrific, idiotic, or just plain old mistake. You just have to strangle the past sometimes and just move on with your life.
Experience builds character.
To all of the people that dwell on the past, you are just dwelling on a dead life that is no longer lead. Honestly, there is a time limit to certain problems and situations, I'd say about a year or two. Because a year or two can totally change your life, it can shape your perspective of everything. You never know what people are thinking, you never know what they'll do. Maybe tomorrow I'll go out and decide to be a born-again Christian, trying to solicit the prophecy of Jehovah.
