We need memories

We need memories
These days, I always had dreams when I was sleeping. They were all about the life when I was in China. I chatted with my parents and played with my friends, the dreams were all so clear that I even asked myself why I always had this kinds of dreams. Maybe I just missed the people in China or I was just this kind of people who was nostalgic. Sometimes I could even feel the sweet when the scenes we played together in the past called to my mind.
I believe that people need memories because memories are a kind of tool that can prove the experiences we had. It can keep the friendship firm even friends do not contact with each other for a long time. It can also encourage ourselves when we are in trouble or facing challenges. Even some memories which relate to the sorrow past things can caution us not to follow the same old disastrous road any more.
However, maybe there will be many people who think if a person always remind of his or her memories, then he or she will not cherish the time now and concentrate on the things we need to do. To some degree, I agree with this saying. So it is important for us to control ourselves. We need memories but shouldn't live in memories. When we are tired, thinking of memories is a good choice to relax ourselves. Regard them as a big treasure we owned, we need them.

  1. Memories are very precious treasure to me.
    I cherish them.
    However, I wish I didn't live in the past.
    Living in the present is happier and more meaningful~

  2. You are right.
    We cannot live without memories.However,living in memories may make us stagnant.
    There is a saying that yesterday is the past,tomorrow is a mystery,today is a gift and that is why we call it present.So cherish the minute you are living in.

  3. Well, totally agree with the upon floor, so I needn't say more about how precious our memory is. However, I want to say not only memory but also our future should be what we consider about. I always conceive how successful I will be in the future, and these conceptions become the power of hard work for me.

  4. I am thankful to the memory
    Of those days when I had not a friend
    I am thankful to the memory
    Of those nights when I could not sleep
    I am thankful to the memory
    Of those great moments when we are together

    I can see your struggling, and cherishing.I can see how important your memory is to you. I don't want to say "step forward and you will get more", that is because, it is harsh to dwell on the past, in daytime and dreams, however, it is also cruel to let you forget the part. Everyone is sometimes wistful about things that are lost, this is how our heart works, I respect the nostalgic people and their memory. They all have a soft heart, a tender mind. They will absolutely chrish "now" as well because when "now" becomes "past", they will also regard it precious.
    I'll end the comment with a poem by Kite Remedy

    In the making of memory

    dear friends,
    how's your life?
    it's been a while since I heard you laughed,
    I, sometimes, dream of us so clearly,
    in this making of 'memory'

    our past days surely are beautiful,
    the things keep our memory books so full.
    the things we left unchanged are so many,
    in this making of 'memory'

    dear friends,
    where have you been?
    our day, our time,
    do you still have that memory?
    we live our lives now, differently.
    we are, but for the making of another 'memory'

  6. I have heard that if one does have a hard time, he would think a lot about his old friends and family. I hope that you are now enjoying your time here.

  7. How true of what you`ve said. Memories are for us to cherish but not to dwell on for too long. We must move on. Wang Hao has made some good comments on memories and given an interesting poem on "Memory" by Remedy. Memories indeed capture the good and bad times of our lives.

  9. Memories are the mirrors in our life, without them, we would not have any idea of our future. We can have it, but we cannot be addicted it. After all, we live in present not yesterday, and we can create more good memories now.
