We have a choice, we can either choose to ignore and pretend a situation or issue doesn’t exist, or we can open the door and let the past teach us, what we need to learn. The past can resurrect itself whether we’re ready for it, or not.

We know the past resurfaces, particularly if we’ve left issues behind that we’ve not dealt with, but what reappears can be subtle, or it may knock us off course. In some cases, it may change our lives forever.

The past could be a similar situation that triggers memories that are unpleasant, or it could be a situation where you’re tempted to step into a self-sabotaging cycle that you worked to free yourself from.

But the past is there to teach us our lessons, it is karma and karma doesn’t want you to fear it. It’s also not something to be feared, or avoided. In many respects, the lessons from the past should be integrated in our present, so that we may change certain aspects of our lives.

The past appears as a reminder, a lesson of how much we have spiritually and emotionally grown. It is an open door to new and better opportunities, it’s an opportunity for you to be kind to yourself, to make yourself a priority.

For those who choose to ignore the past, the past may stay unresolved. Unless we learn to deal with our issues, those issues can come back and karma will always deal its hand, in some cases worse the second time around.

Although we may not always understand karma and how karma works, some of us may find we’re living our karma this side of life. Depending on what we have done, karma doesn’t always wait to serve its unwelcoming hand.
