Revisit the past

Why do we keep doing things? I mean, all the non essential things for living. Like, travel, sports, friends, shop, etc etc., and we do it every day. Time to time, we do big things like reunions, weddings, parties etc.,. I think by doing these stuff, we are trying to achieve two things.

The first one, to avoid the thought of why we are living and what are we doing in this world, in short, we are keeping ourselves busy.

The second, indirectly we are creating a record or memories. Memories are good, and that's why we live: to create memories. If we forget the past, there is no point. I agree, sometimes past is painful, but it is the past, which is already over and is long gone. We need to forgive ourselves and forgive others. The more easy we are, the better we feel. Past should help in giving us more clarity. It should give us strength and happiness.

Especially, for those living far from their home countries, I guess these blues may have occurred at least once. So, revisit the past. Dust the personal journals out, or talk to old buddies.

Well said, Man is not made to understand life, but to live it.

I hope you had fun reading this!

The problem with humans is they want a reason for everything. If anything happens, they try to assign a reason why it happened. They just cannot let it go and just have fun.
