Which Is Better - Memory Or Forgetfulness? Poem by Ramesh T A

Looking back from the past to the present what a great change one sees in profile;
From childhood to old age, bodily change is striking much and not easy to identity;
We cannot recognize who we are seeing old photos from the past to the present;
In the same way, if we happen to see our future profile, will we recognize or identify?

Forgetfulness like dementia or Alzheimer makes one unaware of who one is or one's name;
While alive in the world itself if we forget about ourselves how are we to know of us after demise?
Spiritual state is perfect state of dementia only completely forever after death sure;
That's why no one is contact us after death where they are and what they are doing there!

Memory loss is better to totally forget untoward incidences of one's life in the world;
But there will be a chance to visualize oneself, if one has written all in a diary or Poems;
Writers and Poets only have this great privilege of all people in the world perhaps;
But bad things of one's life will create unbearable hell in the mind wishing for death earlier!

Of the two - photo memory or forgetfulness, the latter is better for all in the fag end of life;
Memories of happy things are better to cherish ever in mind but for bad things dementia is good!
