Anyways, my comment to this episode is...in my opinion experiences are meant as learning tools, I mean it's dumb to burn your hand in the oven cause you aren't wearing mitts EVERYTIME you bake...but guess what I sti..I mean some of us still do it! we get to the point where we say well this burn isn't as bad as the last or this burn healed much faster than the last, and we miss the most important point ie if we wore mitts there would be no burns...ok so I am rambling but the point of this ramble is our past experiences will always shape how we think, feel whether proactively or reactively. Sometimes this is good cause it helps us make "wiser' decisions. Sometimes it's bad cause we make "dumb" decisions because we expect a recurrence of our past experience (even if the situations are not even remotely similar) and so we try to avoid it. I don't think that we should ignore previous experiences and create fresh ones in recurring situations (ie mistakes) but I do think that all situations should be examined in context, considering all factors, evaluating available options and then deciding whether to take the much celebrated leap of faith or the brilliant kung fu move "runlikelightning" either way our experiences shape who we are and how we use them defines who we become or continue to be...(in my humble opinion) understanding all these things makes it easier to accept that "the present is not the past" but also that the past can determine whether the present becomes better or worse...it's about letting go while having enough faith in yourself to allow the wind to flow beneath your wings!yviehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04723714429417112984noreply@blogger.com
