V "past" : Our Stature!!!


"Dreams will come true through the good times in bad"--Bryan Adams

Germany fought two world wars and lost decisively in both. Though first was reactionary and it was actually second which was a major error yet Hitler is one of the exemplary humans ever born. A lesson in history class about World War 1 for Mr Hitler would have been sufficient to deter him from going for number 2 but he fought. He lost, but only war. Not the space in the historical literatures. Mr Hitler capitalised on the mistakes and experiences of other to commit new bigger mistakes and hence bigger lessons and of course the bigger fame.

Going by rhetoric it is unwise to go against the historical experiences but we have an example how the greatest of leader in history went against the history to create history which is unmatched yet in history.
 More willingness to courage, Bigger is the past and brighter is the future.

Past is a shopping bag.
Not necessarily full of mistakes but contains a majority of it; reason being because we consider every failure to be a mistake. Though it is not so. Failure and success aren't the dead ends; they are just a stop at a lesson point.
I never consider anything a folly because a mistake is just an error due to bad judgement. And judgement is a characteristic of our personality which itself is governed by our experiences of faltering and learning. That is why they say don’t repeat the same mistakes but do new and new. But the key is learning and remembering.

People call it experience and I call it lesson because it has to be remembered. Act undertaken and lesson forgotten is like a NINE POINT CGPA HOLDER remaining UNEMPLYOED after CAMPUS RECRUITMENT.

This is the reason why its shame to do mistakes when your head is white and grey, commit all mistakes when you are young, carry on your back the sack of lessons and lessen the follies... otherwise you can do blunders even at 70 and can say, “Buddha hoga tera baap...abhi to humare khelne ki umar h!!!

But the bag also carries the beauty of life. Happiness, satisfaction, thoughts, friends, family, success, love, money, honey are all what our past acts reaped for us. Some acts gone all guns blazing producing results nothing less than exquisiteness.  Judgements gone ultra correct and shaping your world altogether in a new moulds. Some acts producing experiences which feature nowhere in the world, but only in you.

Dozens of shames lie in burial when you get the sense and opportunity to admire your lessons and past. After all when you are in net profit is a sucess!!!

PAST is what we are today.
We, our persona, our identity isn’t a consequence of a particular event or moment or any single experience. We are not an ice cream cone of three flavors in five colours made on demand within a time we blink five times. We are a shadow of transition. We are made in phases, processes, sequences and a combination of experiences. Yes just like khadi cloth, keep on weaving thread by thread and soon a comfortable summer wear is created.

Look at the sole of your boot. Some of yours will be worn out by heels, boys will have torn out toes ends, some will have disorientation of left right sides, and some will have uniform degradation. Sole reflects the way you walked since you started wearing that shoe. The way it wears and tears reflects the way you handled it.
Same way, Time moves on and on, drags us along and shapes our identity in course.

We can never be away, separated from our past. Each bygone year reflects oldness. The sum together of all the oldness creating years makes our present. Every moment shapes us bit by bit. 

Past is the courage you shown to experiment with your own selves to learn the bigger gains. Twenty forgettable acts can be traded off for reaching to an experience potentially capable to change our very outlook.  Mothers twenty slaps during exam time are worth if they help us in getting lessons and scoring a BINGO in results. This is where I place Mr Adolf in the category of the wisest among the wise.

Don’t be afraid of acts, there is nothing regrettable. En cash lessons and you will feel the charm of pasts.

Those who say forget past and move on need a special meeting with me in person, though I am not available!!!
