What we are today is an entity chiseled by the
past. We are being polished by the all experiences and feelings we are going
through now. The process of perfecting our life will never end; it will
continue to our graves.
We are born raw for this world to live. We are
born inexperienced, unbalanced and unsteady and hence we stumble.
Our first attempts in this world are destined
to fail.
We try to walk and fall; but our fall is never
considered a failure. We are not born with the experience to walk upright in
this world. So falling is necessary to learn to walk.
If we did consider the fall from our first
attempt to walk as a failure in life, we would have never learned to walk.
How many times does the mother bird throw her
little chicks down the cliff into the air to teach them to fly? The mother bird
pushes her chicks down again and again till they learn to fly. At each failure
to fly, the father eagle interferes and carry the little one back to the top of
the cliff.
It is trying, failing and restarting again.

Our past is not a matter of shame. The
failures of the past are not a shame; they are the ingredients that combined
together to form our present personality. If there were no such past, we would
not have learned to live as we live today.
All our attitudes are a constructed mindset.
The process of constructing this mindset needs
the failures of the past.
No one is born perfect with wisdom and
practical know how to live a proper life. Wisdom is the natural product of
considered experiences in our life.
How I learned to be a success at University
examinations? I leaned it by writing examinations in lower classes. The wisdom
of life is a mass of all knowledge in the past life.
Even if we were born at this age without a
past, we are still likely to fall; because we have no back support of
experiences. Age does not make us wise only experiences in life will make us
mature.
Success in life is also as important as
failures. Successes are also experiences. Success also leaves lasting
impressions.
Success joins with failure to produce the
final product.
Our present attitude or mindset is constructed
with a compound of success and failure.
Without them we would have been different.
All our experiences in life are different from
other people. The happiness, joy, despair, frustration and everything are
different from those of others. Hence we are different from others.
As long as our experiences in the past are
different from others, we cannot be the same as them.
Do not regret the past.
They have made us today.
Without them we cannot be the same.
