Reliving The Past

People say that the past can make one stronger.  In historians' eyes, the past can either make or break a person as societal expectations and pressure come into play.  Nevertheless, regardless of the past we had experienced, I firmly believe that reliving the past is what defines us humans.  We have seen in movies often the characters just pushed on even though something bad happened to them.  Let's face it, if all of us could do that, then there wouldn't be terms such as "developing countries" and "third world countries".  It is exactly because humans fail to understand the severity of their own actions that lead to blunders happening time and again throughout the course of history.  Reliving the past will not only help people to understand their mistakes better but it will also serve as a reminder that they have lived through it.  No matter how difficult or painful, be it happy or jovial, that part of the past makes us who we are today.

That is why, to you readers out there, don't discard the past please.  The greatest past one could ever see in one's family is his/her grandparents and parents.  They are literary walking fountains of knowledge and experience.  I won't say wisdom here as some adults are completely negligent to it.  That aside, listening to a few advice they have to give will never hurt but only benefit us.  I am not saying that we need to conform completely without cogitating but more often than none, the advice they give is worth the while.

With that, I would like to bring the curtain down on today's topic by sharing a fabulous music with everyone.  This musical score comes from a very heartwarming movie I watched when I was still a child, please enjoy it.
