BAD MEMORIES

Leave a Comment

Memories of all that had ever hurt our feelings, we wish to get rid of. However, we are never able to eradicate completely such memories. They reappear stealthily and depress us even in such times when they have become much irrelevant and meaningless for us.


But, there are pleasant memories also that are potentially upsetting and responsible for causing avoidable chemical imbalances in our glands. When we are unable to forget and keep on cherishing the memories of the instances of being instrumental in delivering some benefit to others, we run a great risk of being much disturbed, if and when, the recipients of the benefits extended by us fail to reciprocate the good done by us to them, in spite of it being well within their might.

While we carry the burden of sad memories of the acts of others that had hurt us in the past, we also, most willingly, carry the pleasantness of being proud of having done some good to the others that may be potentially much disappointing and injurious to the  spiritually elevating qualities of kindness, compassion and selfless service.
