To live memories of the past is to limit himself, because the person who, in one way or another, does not benefit from everyday life, does not benefit from his present, his moment of experience, because life is not about remembering, it is about acting. It’s not being stuck in the past, it’s moving forward. We can’t be caught between the past and the future, as if he’s here and now don’t exist.
Remembrance is an integral part of life and is often inevitable, either for better or worse. In a way, memories are a way to focus on who you love, who you are, and what you don’t want to lose, for all that has affected you deeply.
Yesterday is the memory of today and tomorrow is the dream of the present.
Memories are misleading because they are colored with the events of the present and the traps of memory. The difference between false and real memories is the same as for jewellery: fakes always seem to be the most real, the brightest.
Spanish writer, screenwriter and director Ray Loriga says something scientists have long warned us about: “Memory is the stupidest dog, you throw a stick and it does something to you?.
“I hope you live every day of your life!?- Jonathan Swift-
In an interview, Albert Einstein was asked what he was doing when he had a new idea; for example, it was written on a piece of paper or in a special notebook. The scientist answered firmly: “When I have a new idea, don’t forget it. Nothing is more true, when something moves us it is almost impossible to forget it.
Then we remember what is really important, what is capable of impressing us, because it activates in us the necessary brain regions and connections that will help to maintain that memory. Nothing fixes a memory with such intensity as the desire to forget it.
Psychology warns us that forgetting is necessary to preserve relevant memories, after all, the memory dog may not be that stupid and actually bring something and not the stick we play because, in the end, that is what we really want. to recover.
“You must live in the present, push each wave, find your eternity at every moment. Fools stay on their island of opportunity while they look at other territories. There’s no other territory, there’s no other life? – Henry David Thoreau –
Pleasure is the flower that blooms as we live, work and act, with it we build our memory every day. This memory is the perfume that will remain Are the happiest memories the moments that ended when they should, without stretching them in time, without stretching them too much?
Then we don’t remember the days, we remember the moments. We can’t produce new situations over and over again. The richness of life is in the memories we continue to form. Constant action can be tricky, especially if you’re stuck in your comfort zone. However, it is necessary to do so in order to live intensely.
Although we have a palpable physical body and perceive the world around us with all our senses, we usually live in our minds; However, it is necessary to make a decision, we can spend our lives remembering past events and how they made us feel. On the contrary, we can take care of our experiences and, of course, our emotions, and only if we do we can enjoy our existence.
The key to living rather than remembering is thinking, imagining and waiting less. Accept what we have and nothing else. Live the moment, without being distracted by the traps of your mind.
The problem is that we always prepare to live, but we never live; however, life must work the other way around.
Happiness is not anywhere else, it is here; not another time, but now. Do not forget this.
“Our daily life will be a memory. Live!?
