you will find that you can remember but few of the events of your life. the experiences of most of the days in which you have lived have been almost completely forgotten. though these experiences may have seemed very vivid and real to you when they occurred, still they have faded into nothingness now, and they are to all intents and purposes lost to you.
[and many now actively seek to forget what is happening in this violently sick country before memories can take root. -ed.]
but they are not lost! remember, you are what you are today by reason of these very experiences which you now fail to remember. this trial strengthened you along certain lines. that one changed your point of view and made you see things with a broader vision. this grief caused you to feel the pain of others.
