A couple of weeks ago I read in
newspaper that scientists have come out with a way by what a person can control
his or her memories. It would help a person to erase bad memories while
retaining good ones. It makes me feel that we are turning into a human computer
with delete and save buttons. I do not know how far this is possible but if it
does happen we would be nothing but walking human robots.
We all have memories – good, bad as
well as ugly. I too have many memories which flash in my mind at totally
unexpected moments. Some of these I would like to forget as it is painful to
remember those times. How many of us have any control over it? Human mind
travels at speed much greater than even light. We may be thinking of something
totally mundane like what to wear for a gettogehter and lo! our mind travels
back by many years to a party where we had a gala time flashing images. And
then suddenly it brings out something which haunts us as it should not have
happened. We hardly seem to have made any effort to have those memories flashing
infront of us. I do not feel if we can ever have any control over our memories.
I feel that we should savor our good
memories while learn lesson from bad or ugly ones to avoid those circumstance
when those happened.
What do you say?
