We tend to see someone else in the shadow of a person, but not always, we see ourselves in the others. We are good in complaining, in pointing out the errors and weaknesses of the circles around us; however, never once we include ourselves in the counting, even if we do belong in that category. It is the resemblance they say, when we find a person with the most familiar attitude and smile, reminding us the one we once knew or still in touch with. On the other hand, resemblances can also be found in the actions or words being used and plenty of such similar occurrences taken place in the surrounding, where one tends to repeat the same old doing he once dislikes, as if it is a form of revenge on the following generations; say, a woman who purposely make things difficult for the daughter-in-law, though she once been through the same and truly understand how it feels. Is it our personality by nature, that we erase the memories of us being in the same situation, that we hypnotize ourselves to behave in such a way that the history repeats? Or perhaps we are simply forgetful, not remember how it once felt like when we personally going through? Even if we do recall the previous moments where we suffered, some may just ignore the fact how much pain it can bring and say, “Now you know how I feel.” Such irony and yet frequently found in the society.
