Weekly Quote 55, with Commentary from the School of Truth

The old things are passed away; behold, they are become new - (2 Cor 5:17)
This is the day the lord hath made; I will rejoice and be glad in it

Are you overwhelmed with guilt sometimes because of the things you have done wrong in the past? If so and if you can rectify the wrong by all means do so, but if not, put it out of your mind and start afresh. Each day gives you the opportunity to begin anew - to set aside errors of the past and to strive to do well in the present. We should learn the lessons our mistakes have taught us and then put them behind us.

The past is over - let it go. Stop blaming yourself for what has been and concentrate on what you can do to make up for it. If you have harmed someone to whom you cannot make amends do something good for someone else.

Free yourself of outworn ideas. What you thought yesterday is not necessarily what you think today. If you are to evolve you will have to discard some of your old notions.
