Dwelling on the past may not be the most brilliant thing to do. But to move forward without looking back once in a while can prove to be fatal to the soul. —Sherma Benosa, 2003
It is not bad to look back to our past. It only becomes unhealthy when we do it much too often, and when we allow the past to hinder us from moving forward. While we may need to have our sights focused on what lay ahead, we also need to look back to our past once in a while to strengthen our resolve to move on. —Sherma E.

Looking back may serve as a test of how strong we have become as a person, despite (or rather, because of) our experiences, including those that brought pain to our heart, tears to our eyes, torture to our mind, and anguish to our soul. It is when we can look back to the past without getting hurt — and with acceptance, if not understanding — that we know we have definitely moved on. —Sherma E.
