The past is one of man’s most important treasures. From it we draw our inspiration, our maturity, our decisions and also our fears and negative feelings.
It is essential for us to bring our past into our present through memory this is the conscious endeavour to make the past fruitful for our present life. That occur when we do not reject and repress it, but instead shape our lives out of the experiences it contains.
It good to remember the good memories of past but one should not forget the bad ones either. Even with experiences which were negative and regrettable It is possible and easier to take something good away from our sad, dismaying or disappointing experiences. At least we can say, ‘good that it’s over’. At least we know which experiences to avoid.
