"Life can be generous, but leaves us with a trilemma: How can we reconcile three diverse features: 'I', 'me' and the 'others'. Since the "I entails what I want; the "me what others expect of me and the "others what others themselves want.

"We are what we remember. If we lose our memory, we lose our identity and our identity is the accumulation of our experiences. When we walk down the memory lane, it can be unconsciously, willingly, selectively, impetuously or sometimes grudgingly.

['Walking down the memory lane']"
