I wouldn’t do it =) Just causes more trouble than it’s worth!
Past Skeletons a Sticky Situation and Must have a Funeral
The situation of past skeletons is a very, shall we say, sticky one. I am a pretty open person however skeletons are dead and they are burried for a reason.
If one takes the initiative to go looking for dirt they are likely to find it and much more, and most of the time that discovered skeleton is detrimental to one’s self. If everyone was so focused on the past we would be subconsciously combating progress.
The sticky component comes in when one has not dealt with there skeletons before they put them six feet under. As I said before skeletons are burried for a reason however one must provide the proper memorial service. Accept the past, say goodriddens, and pay your respects.
If one does not have a propper burial it is likely that one will be forced to exhume that old skeleton. Lets leave the past in the past. But it will be very interesting to see what skeletons are exhumed and how they affect every one in the new film “Straw Dogs.”
Straw dogs quote
I think its better to leave some things in the past.
Well..
As long as they’re not mine, it’s fine with me! :)
Now if they’re my own skeletons - well I hope I’d have a closet to hide them in. :D
Past Skeletons
Past should remain past.
The less desirable aspects
The less desirable aspects of a person’s past are called skeletons for a reason: they’re best left buried. There are shockingly few situations that can be aided by digging up the past. Don’t poke the bear, let sleeping dogs lie, and all that.
digging up past skeltons
your past skeletons is your history , better you bring it up as opposed someone else do it .
How do you feel about digging up past skeletons?
I say whatever it is, confess it then let it go. They truly WILL consume you if you don’t. That’s experience and my 2 cents….
Stay Blessed! :-)
How do you feel about digging up past skeletons?
The past determines how you move forward, I’d come clean.
I don’t think I would have
I don’t think I would have enough courage to do so, but if it were really necessary I might find it in me…
