If it’s out of your hands. It deserves freedom from your mind too.

Everyone wants to be free. Freedom is what people are looking for, whether it is physical, emotional, or financial independence. But, sadly, life can present you with some circumstances and situations that are out of your control.

And sometimes, as you continue your life's journey, you may lose things and even people. Whether you like it or not, something you cannot hold or touch physically anymore no longer deserves to continue taking a spot in your mind. This is almost similar to the adage that says "out of sight, out of mind". If something is already absent in your life, you need to forget it soon. Granted that things and people may come back, but there is no need for you to continue having lingering thoughts or feelings about it if they don't.

Freeing your mind of something that is no longer yours gives you the freedom to continue living your life as it is now. You cannot turn back time, nor can you change the past. Therefore, it will be utterly futile to harbor lost feelings or lament over wrong decisions and missed opportunities. Life doesn't work this way. Life is about looking forward. Yes, it wouldn't hurt to look back now and then. Remembering your past mistakes is essential so you can do better in the future. However, it doesn't mean that you should let the past control you, your heart, and your mind.

Let bygones be bygones. Forget about the things you lost and the people who left. Instead, use them as inspiration for you to do better and be better tomorrow. Your mind needs freedom, and you deserve to be free.
