"And the struggle breeds memory. (...) It is the struggle to repeat and perpetuate pleasure which turns it into pain. Watch it in yourself. The very demand for the repetition of pleasure brings about pain, because it is not the same, as it was yesterday. You struggle to achieve the same delight, not only to your aesthetic sense but the same inward quality of the mind, and you are hurt and disappointed because it is denied to you." J.Krishnamurti -"Freedom from the Known"
-So why, why to seek something from before? -perhaps because it is never the same as it was before. Perhaps because it is always new, different, interesting, passionate -not even -with the previous memory.
