The Desert Teaches: To save memories

The life of each person is full of memories, sometimes happy and sometimes sad. There are important memories, those that change your life, for the better or worse and those that make us feel a few moments of calm or upset depending on the mood of that which we choose to recall. The more distant in time, the less they involve us emotionally even though the memory remains intact. Some, however, we would like to forget forever, but we can’t: memories are the bricks with which we build our existence, that have made our lives unique and unrepeatable and can not be erased. They are preserved forever in a room in our hearts and they remain there, to remember the path that led us to become the people we are. Unlike animals, which live only in the present, men are given memory, and we should not forget to use the past and our past experiences to help us manage the future. The desert taught me to take manage every moment of excitement, joy and sorrow. To remember who I am and to indicate the path that awaits me, step after step, to improve myself as an individual and to always have new memories to cherish.
