It's interesting how many things one can accumulate over the years.
This morning, i decided to do some spring cleaning on my laptop.
Everyday, i add in new things and none comes out because i think to myself, what if I need them one day? Of course most of the time, this day never comes. But i keep them anyway, just in case. Oh well, the files only take up virtual space, i thought I might as well leave them there, because re-building from scratch is a pain. Am I the only one feeling insecure? haha...
Today is a historical moment because it's time to delete.Yes, there comes a time when you are forced to do something and only then, u realise that, those things u think were important at that time, no longer seem important now.
At a press of a 'delete' button, over 1,250 files in my dowloads folder, which i had accumulated for the past 5 years were gone in less than a minute. Looking at the speed, i suddenly thought, if we all could delete/ let go of our unhappy thoughts, memories and feelings at this speed, wouldn't we be happier? Wouldn't the world be more peaceful?
Many times, we hold on to past events, be it happy or unhappy ones, be it hatred or love for many years. Good ones are like vitamins for our healthy, while the bad ones are slowly killing us but we refuse to admit them... We think, by doing so we are showing the other parties some 'colours' but in actual fact, we are punishing ourselves.
Hmmmm... something to work on....
如果我们也能以这种速度忘了，原谅了，是否会过的更快乐？
