Forgettery

Inspired by lyrics to “What I Hold Onto” by Sue Riley & Melinda Wood Allen

“With the hard-earned wisdom I have now, I wouldn’t do again what my old self would allow.

Letting go of all the blame and heartache, now I see. I’m getting closer to a new, more peaceful me.

I’m holding on to what I want to keep. I feel lighter, I sleep better, its love that’s holding me.

Now I can stand back and see: The past is the past, but the future’s up to me.

What I hold on to holds on to me. Resentments I carried wouldn’t let me be free.

My new religion is live and let be. What I hold on to holds onto me.”
