Download The Past is Never Dead
Sara Wheeler rereads her youthful diaries and ponders lessons learned.
'Discarding perished rubber bands that once sheaved the slim volumes,' Sara writes, 'I read the story of my own life.'
She wonders if accepting and understanding the past can help us escape 'the three rs of lived experience - regret, remorse and recrimination.'
