Have you ever had an old memory suddenly come up… seemingly out of nowhere?

Not a sweet, nostalgic memory.

But one of those uncomfortable memories from years ago.

A choice you made.

Something you said.

A way you behaved toward someone.

Something you now regret, feel embarrassed by, or even feel ashamed of.

And then you wonder... “Where did this come from?”

“Why am I thinking about this now?”

That happened to me a few days ago.

A wave of cringe-worthy memories came up from decades ago.

And for a moment, I found myself wondering the same thing:

“Why are these memories suddenly popping into my consciousness now?”

Then my Higher Self reminded me of something very simple.

Memories like this are not random.

Thoughts are magnetic

Every thought in this universe is magnetic.

This means that the thoughts we’ve been broadcasting each carry a vibration.

And those vibrations go out and find other thoughts and memories with similar frequencies.

So, when these unpleasant memories came up, I realized:

“Oh… I did this. I attracted this.”

And once I recognized that, I stopped myself.

I thought,

“Okay. This is not where I want to go. I do not want to keep attracting more memories like this.”

Because there was no reason whatsoever to revisit those memories from 30 or 40 years ago.

I am no longer that person.

I am not even the same person I was last year.

I’ve grown. I’ve evolved.

I am more aware than I’ve ever been in my life.

And I have a deeper appreciation for myself and others.

You don’t need to follow the memory

So, if something like this happens to you — if unpleasant memories suddenly pop up and you wonder where they came from — I want you to know:

Nothing is wrong. It's not a big deal.

You can simply notice… “Oh, I attracted that memory. That’s okay. I don’t have to follow it.”

And then you can turn your attention somewhere else.

This is something we intuitively understood in Lemurian times.

We also knew that the Higher Self never looks back and never feels regret.

Think about it... Your Higher Self is fully present now.

And from that presence, it is always focused forward. Always.

In Lemuria, we didn’t consider the past as something to relive.

We understood that the past had helped us become who we were in the present moment.

So, our focus was on who we were in that moment… and who we were becoming next.

What do I want to create next?

What do I want to experience next?

Who am I choosing to become now?

And we knew the Higher Self was always guiding us forward.

Choose where you focus

This is why it’s so important to be gentle with yourself when old memories or negative thoughts come up.

Negative thoughts can easily attract other negative thoughts.

They find each other quickly and say, “Come on over… we want to get a downward spiral going!”

But there’s no need to feed the spiral.

You can notice the thoughts, bless them, and then refocus your attention on something else.

I was inspired to share this because I have a feeling many of us are experiencing things like this right now.

And sometimes it helps to have a loving reminder:

You are not your past.

You are not the version of yourself you once were.

You are the consciousness that is here right now, in this moment, evolving into someone who is more aware, more loving, and more aligned with who you truly are.

So, if an unpleasant memory comes up today, don’t journey backward with it.

Simply say: “Thank you. I know I attracted you, but I am consciously choosing now to focus on something else.”
