Running from fear of vulnerability
There are times when you realize you don't have to wear the old tire just to watch its tread run bare. If we know enough to let go in the moment then we can just let it go. Though tempting sometimes... we still want to wear the old thing to relive old times... pretend we can still hide from our vulnerability... pretend that running is comfortable. But it ain't comfortable. Its Harsh... Its Transparent. We can still push it, but its all futile in the end because we remember we really don't want to go down that road any longer.

I've had the same wallet for over ten years now and its really disintegrating fast but I still can't bring myself to switch over to a new wallet. I accidently put it through the washer/dryer a few months ago which didn't help matters at all. I have a feeling that even after it loses all capacity to function as a wallet, I'll still carry around the scraps of leather for no good reason.

The key to success and happiness is constant self-improvement.
This may or may not be relative to what you're trying to say, but this is one of my favorite quotes:
"If you live in the past, you'll miss the present, and if you miss the present, you'll have no future."
Einstein once said that insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.
