"Podemos seguir intentando limpiar el pasado."
— Buzz Aldrin
Simplified Meaning:
Sometimes, people focus a lot on fixing past mistakes or trying to change things that have already happened. For example, imagine you spilled ink on a white dress. You could spend hours trying to clean the stain, but it might never be completely gone. Instead of being stuck on the old mistake, it might be better to learn from it and move forward. In history, countries can apologize for past actions, but they can't change them. They can learn from their errors and work to ensure they don't happen again. For an individual, worrying too much about past errors can prevent them from enjoying the present or planning for the future. If someone always thinks about mistakes they've made, they might feel sad or anxious. To live happier, it's sometimes best to accept the past, learn from it, and focus on making better choices now.
