  1. you can be  partly right that we should let things go, but---if one did not know how electricity was made from the start...and GOD decided to judge us one day soon,-----------how are we to get the electricity then, if the world was in ruins...if you dont know how you got to a certain point, not only would you not need a memory, you would just be a speck of dust with no meaning in life...We ...as people have to know how bad we were or how much we improved along a very long road of intelligents and wisdom...not only that...wouldnt you want to be remembered as a person or how you touched someones life...you also learn lessons from the past...

       some day,  a human in the year   2165 will say,, why should we learn the past...and someone may say: we should study the past to see how...how... we did it... humans are sopposed to be curious, thats what keeps us looking , and its good to learn why? we want to look...


  2. Life is like a child doing something wrong or just plain crazy. You let that child pull that tv on  top of his head he wont do it anymore you let a put his finger in a electrical outlet he will think twice about doing it again. life is a circle everything we do we learn from so that next time we don't make the same mistake over and over again.

      

  3. Of course it is. If we dont learn what happened in the past and take into account the outcomes of the decisions we made them we run the risk of making the same mistakes. For example the US is getting spread pretty thin in a military sense. People are getting upset because we could be leaving ourselves exposed in ares that could be very damaging. If you look at anchient Rome they did the same thing. They spread themselves so thin that eventually the people they were trying to control or take over got the best of t hem and took back everything that was taken from them. If we paid more attention to the past we can learn from our mistakes and make better chioces now. Its the same thing in your personal life. You dont just ignore the experiences you had in the past because they are relevent to whats going on currently. When you take the time to evaluate the things you do good and bad you can make better choices that will lead you in nthe direction you want to go. There will always be set backs but you still are one step ahead if you pay attention to where you have already been.
