What are we but a culmination of our experiences? What we have seen, where we have been, what we have done, what we have said. This is who we become. These are our virtues, our morals, and our mistakes. Our experiences teach us, they teach others, and help us teach.

How unfortunate would it be to lose memory. What are we then? We become a body who is experiencing, yet does not experience. How can you experience without memory? It all goes to naught.

Experiences shape us.
