Many a times I would get these sudden flashbacks from my recent and distant past. Usually there are certain moments in the present where I am most susceptible to getting flashbacks from my past experiences. For example I might be doing something or look at something that triggers a memory about the past and then I experience having an inner dialogue about that past moment that comes into the present. Does this mean that if my mind replays something from the past and it gets a reaction out of me then could it be my minds way of trying to clear out things from my mind that don't serve me? Or could my mind replaying past experiences be a way to tell me something that hasn't been resolved that needs to be resolved in some way, or coming to terms with something about myself that I yet haven't accepted? Do I have to come to terms with something from my past before letting it go? Or would letting it go be enough in and of itself? Yes, I would say that these moments when I experience past flashbacks about certain things it does give me a heavy feeling. Some past flashbacks about my past give me a light feeling, and those are usually flashbacks about moments when I was happy about something.
If everything I have ever been or done, said, worn, studied, worked at and loved and hated had been exactly right to create the me that I am now then I would say I can accept that.
