“Do not let our painful past sustain our present ”
— Russell Brand
Simplified Meaning:
Sometimes, bad things happen to us in the past that hurt us a lot. Carrying those painful memories with us can make our current life harder and sadder. Imagine you have a backpack and every time something bad happens, you put a heavy rock in it. If you never take the rocks out, the backpack gets heavier and heavier, making it hard to walk. In life, holding on to past hurts is like carrying that heavy backpack. For example, if someone was very mean to you years ago and you keep thinking about it, you might feel sad and angry even now. To feel better and move forward, it's important to let go of those past hurts, like taking the rocks out of your backpack. This idea means that we should focus on the present and not let what happened before take away our happiness now. By doing this, we give ourselves a better chance to enjoy life and make new, positive memories.
