Our past mistakes only comes back to us when we are stocked in a situation due to the things connected to this past and always through reflection ms. It’s obvious to know that when our present state of mind is in good condition or that when our present lifestyle is okay, we don’t even remember nor regret whatever mistakes we have from the past. This emotion and characteristics is what makes humanity.
Past mistakes are what we human forgets so easily especially if our present is going well, and again, if we have been able to situation the future to keep making things align the way we want them. This I strongly believe is the nature humans are made of.
But again, mistakes are what we make without knowing what the future will look like which is why its called the unforeseen circumstances. And as many who have made one terrible mistake or the other, whose situations are regrettable will not hesitate to go back to correct their mistakes if they were given the chance to do so. By this we can agree that its only when our past mistakes hunts us that we regret what we have done and will want to correct them if given the opportunity.
However, going back in time would not have been the best for humanity because the mistakes others has made in the past are the lessons they learn from since the popular artist 👩🎨 Bob Marley sang in one of his music 🎶 saying “Once Beaten m, Twice Shy”. Its indeed a food for thought 💭 because no one ever makes a mistake and will allow the same mistake again to happen to them. Although many may live with their past mistakes through their life time, but others will learn from them and will not be a victim to the same mistake.
And I believe that going back in time through time travel 🧭 would not have allow humans to move faster in life and lifestyle, especially those that has to do with Innovation and Artificial Intelligence since people will be looking for how to go back to past mistakes instead of embracing new things and devising ways to correct past mistakes from our forefathers into modern advancements. Meaning that the growth the world 🌍 has achieved wouldn’t have been possible. Example is how Ellon Musk never regretted any of the mistakes he was making while trying to build his career. In fact, he was going on and on despite every challenges because he has his focus and did not want to look at the past mistakes but the future.
It all boils down to how we must not allow the mistakes we make in the past to hunt and bring us down. We should know as humans we are bound to make mistakes because we are not perfect. So allowing our mistakes to hunt us and make us loose focus is one big challenge to life which eventually will not help us advance further to achieve our dreams. The goal is to keep moving.
