Leaving your past is not as easy as it sounds, it keeps showing, popping up one way or the other.

Yes it keeps popping up but the question is, what are your approaches towards it? do you allow it bring you down or direct your path?

The path you walked on in the past should be the path leading to your future.

I disagree to an extent, the path you waked on in the past might shape or destroy your future, it mustn't be the path leading to your future, bad memories from the past changes people but sometimes good people from the present changes the picture.. it all depends on you..

The past always has a way of reflecting in the present and so leaving it behind is not a great idea rather you should try to mend your ways, straighten your curves and face the truth.

True, but some should be left behind(the bad and ugly part) only then can you be confident enough to walk through the present...
