Gone past

As I was playing Far Cry the other day (yeah that game is awesome) I was reminded of how important it is to destroy the troops behind you so you can confidently go forward.  I kinda reckon that's the same in our lives.  First we got to recognise its a battle, be on the alert and treat it like one, but importantly we need to have destroyed the stuff in the past that would sneak back up on us and attack us, so we can focus on where we are going and the battle in front of us.  We also need to carry only the necessities and a backpack is all we have to fit this in, plus our memory bank.  Really have to focus on dealing with stuff & moving on!
