№1 Holding memories keep us stuck in the past.

Several years ago, I deleted over 30,000 photos from my phone. I deleted memories of parties, special occasions, world travel, holiday gatherings, landmarks, and family. I did this at the advice of a spiritual teacher. He suggested it but didn’t expect many would follow, but I did because I was on an intense healing journey and needed to break free of the past that plagued me.

I grabbed my phone, and without hesitation, I deleted everything. Instantly, I felt lighter and detached. I didn’t feel remorse, regret, or guilt.

Why are we encouraged to hold on to memories of the past? Because the more we hold on, the more we reminisce, the more powerless we become in creating new (real) experiences.

I have said it once, but it bears repeating. Nothing in the Matrix system is to help us. Everything is there to throw us off our game so that we never discover how powerful we really are. Have you noticed most of the social media platforms remind us daily of memories from our past? My loves, pay attention to the things I share with you. The answers are readily available if we dare seek them.

№2 Memories hinder us from creating new experiences.

We all know people who go on the same vacation every year; same time, place, people, and even the same hotel. I bet they don’t realize they are stuck in a loop, unable to venture to new experiences because they keep reminiscing on the past. They are trapped in their comfort zone. Why? Because holding on too tight to memories keep us on a repeated loop of previous experiences (same stuff, different year).

Most humans do not realize this because we have been conditioned to believe we should hold on to memories (especially the good ones). The truth is — it is a trap. Once I discovered this, I immediately stopped taking photos during trips and posting them on social media. I decided when that experience was done, I would move on to the next new adventure; I left the past in the past. In doing so, I became fully invested in the present moment and found the experience more enjoyable.

This is another little nugget of truth I wanted to share with you. I understand these things take time to digest. If on the path to discovering our true potential, we must learn to seek and accept the truth and begin to deconstruct everything we’ve ever known. It takes courage, but you are not alone. Peace & love, Ari.
