Memories, they never die. We are who we are thanks to them. They define us as a person. It is as if you were a pirate that always want more treasures. We tend to seek adventures and do things we have never done before. Therefore, we keep them with us, very close to our hearts.
Of course, there are those memories we would rather forget. Every person has gone through situations that has marked them greatly in their lives. I once heard that the human being tends to forget moments that traumatized us. It makes sense. We want to forget something so badly that we eventually do it without even noticing it. We notice this if others bring them back by talking about them. But you should remember that what you forget, you can never retell.
Every day that goes by, you are making memories. You may not notice it because of the lifestyle we have is so agitated but trust me, you are. I would get angry when people said to me: "Enjoy your high school, those good old days will never come back". I was enjoying them trust me. But now that I'm in college, I understand what they were trying to tell me. The memories that I created throughout the four years of high school will always be with me. They certainly prepared me for this whole new step of my life. The same will happen eventually with college and next thing I know, I will be working in what I love.
"Life's a climb, but the view is great". We can't help it, there are going to be good and bad memories. It is up to us how are we going to
"I may not know it, but this are the moments that I'm gonna remember most of.."
MAKE SURE YOU ENJOY EVERY STEP OF THE WAY!
Wow! Our life is definitely a roller coaster ride and the song proves life's ups and downs. We definitely have to do what the song suggests, in order to, live a happy life. We can never give up. We have to remember that after the rain comes the rainbow, and that the grass sometimes isn't greener on the other side. We have to appreciate the good and bad things that happen to us. Let's celebrate life!
ReplyDeleteThat is totally true. We tend to forget bad memories. Or maybe we don't forget about it. It's just that we do decide to not think about those harmful events, therefore, we do not think about them very often. On the other hand, regarding good memories, it is our sole task to cherish them and to never forget them. In fact, we shall live to celebrate in remembrance of those good old times and to live more joyful experience. That is just the way human nature works.
ReplyDeleteThis entry hit deep. It made me realize that every second that passes is a second that we're never getting back. Wasted time is the worst and that is why we need to make good memories. Also, the song has always made me emotional, hahaha.
ReplyDeleteThe feels I felt as I read this entry were too much. It was amazing. And you are so right. We tend to let life just pass us by because of complacency. But through that, we find the memories that form our identity and help us find who we are. I really enjoyed the pirate analogy, made me smile. Life's pretty difficult, as you said. But it's worth going through all those struggles in the end.
