Letting go of my past

I was once a prisoner of my past. I kept on dwelling on the things that happened to me especially the sad moments. I always asked myself "what did I do to experience those kind of things?". I cared for everyone who surrounded me but I got nothing in return only heartaches. But one day I meet this special someone in life. He told me that letting go of my past is the best way to heal the wounds and heartaches that I felt. Let go in order to obtain happiness. And here I am today, happy and contented for who I become today and for what I have.
