War
“Not all battles raise their voice.”
No Return Address
We all revisit old pain from time to time. This reflection is about learning when memory becomes a place you no longer live—choosing movement, optimism, and forward motion over emotional time travel.
“Healing isn’t forgetting.
It’s choosing not to go back.”
We all time-travel back to the pain
once in a while.
I used to live there.
Visited often.
Stayed too long.
Now I live my life.
I travel.
I exercise.
I smile.
I laugh at myself.
I choose optimism on purpose.
So going back there—
that’s no longer an option.
