Erasing things in life is not as easy as erasing something from a piece of paper. Some people write things because they are mad, and then forget about it. Then, they just erase what they wrote on that piece of paper.
A lot of people think that erasing things is different than forgeting, and others think it is the same thing. For some people erasing something from their life may be what they don’t want to remember.
Few people may think that “special” thing that they’ll like to erase or eliminate from their life, might just change their entire life. Regretting something they did in some part of their life may be the first thing they’ll try to erase or forget from their lives. Trying to erase or forget a family member, or lying to them may be the worst mistake a person could ever do. For others, being in an argument with some “special” friend, best friend, or someone they’ve known their whole life can change their life, in the case that the person becomes absent from their lives. Even more serious will the situation get as well as the anguish, when it’s the significant other (boyfriend or girlfriend).
At school, some people may try to erase from their mind, things they did that might have got them sent to the office, or just simply regret not paying attention in class. Knowing now those decisions to erase those situations, are now impacting their lives.
“Yes, I would like to erase something from my life, which may be when my parents and I got into a really bad argument, and it changed a lot of things in my life,” Genesis Castellanos, freshman, said.
Many people would like to change something that made a change negatively with their family members. An argument with someone can cause some people to move away or change some part of their daily routines.
“Yes, I think erasing something from your lives changes things, because people change depending on what happens in their lives,” Marlett Cisneros, freshman, said.
What happens to people depends on what they’ve done in their lives or to another individual. Reminding yourself about that something, you want to erase may not be the best way to go about it, it’s better to forget about it and not talk about it anymore.
“It’s easier to erase from a piece of paper than from your mind, because erasers are made to do that. But, forgetting takes a long time if you have thought about something a whole lot,” Monika Vida, freshman, said.
In conclusion, erasing things in life isn’t as easy as erasing things on paper. For some people, erasing something from their life might be what they don’t want to remember. An argument with someone or even a family member can change more than one thing, and make your day a lot different. It is painful when arguments occur between people in relationships, but their are billions of people in the world to talk to, that will make you feel better about yourself when you feel like erasing something.
