Looking Back

I've scanned through my facebook page earlier and I've found so many discoveries and seen things I've never seen before. Looking back at each picture and at each post; I know that I have understand things differently right now. My understanding shifts as I look at a different perspective of my life.

When I was in the moment of despair and grief, I can only see the mountains that I will climb. But when I am so happy, I can only see the blue skies, the flowers, and all the beauties of the earth. But when I look back, I have seen everything including the mountains I've climbed and the valleys I've traversed. It made me wonder if I am who I am today if I missed one mountain in my life. Then I know that things will be different in my life  if I have missed a mountain or a valley.

Looking back, I've seen everything and it made me understand that life is working this way. Whatever happened, the past has made me who I am today. I have to be reminded everyday that I have traversed a difficult path or walked through the valley of happiness in order for me to move on and live my life.

So, if someone would asked me if I would have a chance to remove an ugly thing in my past, would I grab it? My answer would be "No" because everything that happened has a reason, it has never been an accident. For without it, I won't be who I am today.
