LOH #242 || Grabbing A Second Chance

I have heard of stories about reincarnation from my grandparents when I was very young. I did believe it back then but now, all I can say is not so much.

It might probably be real or not but for the sake of this week's prompt let's assume it is real.

If I am to choose between reincarnating with memories I have had but to meet new people and forgetting all my memories and meet the same old people, I would opt for the former.

I am choosing this not because I won't miss the good people I have known. I chose this option so that I'll be able to keep my experiences and this would in turn help me have better relationships with the new set of people I would meet.

They say "experience is the best teacher". I have learned and I'm still learning about life. It is not always a bed of roses as it has its ups and downs and these experiences had taught me a great deal. The good memories I want to keep forever and the bad? Let's just say, I want to keep them as a guide so as not to make those mistakes again.

I have lost some relationships in the past because I didn't understand better. I used to think people ought to be wired the same way and so, I expect others to do the same things the way I would do in some situations and when I see an opposite reaction from them, I'd tag them as unserious or uncaring, not knowing that sometimes that's all they could have done to solve the problem at the time.

I have learned a lot about tolerance and the ability to see things from the point of view of others. I have learned and still learning to communicate better with others and not just my way as the only way.

I am bringing the knowledge with me as form of balance for me. Knowing when to help and when I am being taken advantage of. Learning to say "No" when I can't do something and still maintain healthy boundaries.

Memories of my past will help me not make the same mistakes over and over again especially in areas of betrayals and deception. I would like to retain my old memories so that I would not fall into the schemes of people whom I thought were friends but they were actually frenemies disguising as friends.

I would not want those silly mistakes that I allowed from my past life to reoccur in my present life. I would also make use of the good teachings and values that I have learnt over the years in my last life.

Another thing that would make me retain my old memories would be because of my connections to web 3. I would not have to start afresh, learning web 3 from scratch. I would then use my memory of crypto to teach the new people around me. I would then be a big lady in Web 3 😄.

Thank you all for reading.
