Don’t look at the past, you said


Last night, all my past suddenly came across my mind. I didn’t even know why. Maybe I’d miss the good old days where I enjoy life so much and didn’t give a damn about politics, love or future. That’s a good thing about being young and free. The problem is we can’t be forever young or free. In the Great Gatsby movie that I just watched today, Gatsby once said “Of course we can repeat the past!” No matter how much Nicky wanted to disagree with Gatsby, he finally agreed that we can repeat the past after Gatsby passed by. If we can repeat the past, do we want to repeat it? What Gatsby tried to deliver in his line was nothing to do with our mistakes that we had done; it’s about the good moments, fall in love for the second times with the same person and maybe just enjoy some times that we have like the good old days even we’re not getting younger anymore. What’s life if we keep depressing about future that’s not sure yet? There is another line in ‘The Notebook’ movie and it’s one of my favorite (I’m so Ted Mosby) “I don’t want to survive! I want to live!”
