The meaning of memories

in philosophy •  5 years ago 

If we were able to write up true history that would have been of great value yet that is not possible. Are minds are poisoned with ideas that serves nothing but an agenda. It irks me to have found out halfway through my life that most of what I've been taught is utter nonsense. I have done a lot in an attempt to unearth it and a see a much bigger picture now but I could have been much further down the line than where I am now.

You and I have had a great run friend and your insight on "inflation" helped me a lot (still hoping you could send me the quote you once used in a comment to one of your posts. Can't remember the exact words but it was something in the line of "they teach you the wrong stuff to confuse you").

I don't think this life is about building a memory for others to remember you but perhaps maybe for yourself to build experience. Just my opinion but who really know...

Much love brother

Thanks! Yes, I agree with you, perhaps the value of the things we do is not measured by whether others are able to remember them, although I do believe that the value it has for us is measured if we can remember them.

As for the quote, I can't really remember it.

Regards!
