Beginning anew is often difficult because we tend to bring
the past forward with us. In revisiting the past, we may seek
to prove to ourselves that it was not as bad as it really was, or we may
seek to forecast the future. Much of the time, however,
dredging up the past is a futile effort. A new beginning needs to be
just that—something that is new (novel, original, fresh,
innovative) and that is a beginning (start, launch, creation,
commencement). In this definition of a new beginning, there is no room
for the past. |
