Not to say I haven't struggled with this, but...
I don't see any reason to dwell the past unless it's a positive component to the future. To focus on the past is like poking an open wound.
(I also just finished reading East of Eden and have been thinking about the whole 'Thou mayest' thing. If you haven't read it, you should right now.)

Such a good book! I cried when I read the last page because I didn't want it to be over.
Also, I wish it was easier said than done to not dwell on the past.
Despite the fact I'm already halfway through the next book I'm reading, I am still thinking about East of Eden. So wonderful...and I cried a lot. It was nice to finish it while being away from home.
And yeah...you're right about it not being easy, but I still keep giving myself this advice. It's gonna stick one day!
