Feel, Remember, Live

We meet endless number of people in our lifetime, which includes the extremely shy ones in the ‘we’. No matter how much extrovert or timid we are, we come across bunches of people and dozens of such bunches. Thinking? Why so many people? Because we knowingly or unconsciously learn and adapt with experience that brush by us in life. All traits we have in our personality, try to match them the ones during childhood. How many were same? How many from parents inherited? Few but still a large part of self-made personality is what chose to keep from the learning in our journey. The cliché as it sounds, ‘it’s not about the destination, but a memorable journey’ (don’t know who said it, but again picked up this brush from my journey of life). Until this thought doesn’t happen to us, we would just tag it as a bookish thought. But ever wondered, where did the ‘bookish’ reach the books? It is well said, “Not everyone can be a good artist, but a great artist can come from anywhere”. The books have all the knowledge, with this knowledge comes experiences of people, who can express beautifully and smoothly. These same books become ideals for some other people who are still unknown to such experiences and start pursuit of them reference to these very same books. People influence people. Books, art, entertainment, drama, culture – name it and they all are about people and their experiences. The only thing important is experiences are feelings and need to be felt whereas, knowledge is information that needs to be remembered. Experiences that are remembered become memories and knowledge that is felt becomes emotions.
