Task 3

Living in the past ''.


There is a difference between thinking about the past and living in it. Sometimes we live in the past because it's familiar; we know what happened; there are no surprises. Think about why you watch your reruns of your favorite old sitcoms over and over again Do you spend a lot of time reminiscing about the past? If the answer is yes, that's okay. Thinking fondly about the past and looking back at the way things used to be isn't a bad thing until it is. This is what happens when we live in the past. We choose to live there because it's familiar. We know everything that happened. When the past was really good, you can live there because just thinking back on it gives you a feeling of comfort and happiness. spent eight years in the Army and am proud to have served my country. I have a friend who also served and although he has been separated from the military for many, many years, he still lives there. Every story he tells is about his days in the military; every situation or scenario that is currently happening is compared to the "good old days" being in the service.If you find that you are clinging to a specific period from your past because you don't feel there is anything in the present or future that could possibly better, and if thinking about the past in that way actually makes you sad, you may be stuck in the past.
