Sayings like these are repeated so often nowadays that they have lost meaning. People will complain, “I don’t need you to lecture me, I already *know* all this,” “The past is the past, leave it behind where it belongs,” or a blatant dismissal from those who are so cemented in the *now*, that they refuse to see the truth right in front of them.
