Letting Go of the Past 


Emma: I think it’s time. 


Uday: I beg to differ. 


Emma: You can’t live in the past. I know that you like reliving your glory days, but the only way to move on is to let go of the past. 


Uday: I don’t want to move on. If you’ve had the life I’ve had, you’d cling to the past, too. 


Emma: But your best days are still to come. Constantly harking back to days gone by doesn’t allow you to live in the moment and to plan for the future. 


Uday: So what? I have my memories to comfort me in my old age. 


Emma: You’re speaking as though your life were over. You’re still young. 


Uday: Not as young I used to be. 


Emma: These old trophies 1 and football jerseys 2 won’t keep you young. 


Uday: Yes, but they help me remember some of the highlights of the old days. Did I ever tell you about the time I single- handedly won the game? 


Emma: Uh...
