Aspects of Experience


When we talk about experience it is all about learning, memories, confusions and just a flashback sometimes. Everyday is an experience it depends on us like how we take it. We can take it as a rough, tough day, some would like to make their every moment worth living and some will observe and find something new in every moment. And when it comes to learn from someone else's experience then yes we can learn from other's experience. It teaches us a lot and it is worth listening to someones good or tragic experience. It alarms and tells us that the mistakes like they do, we do not need to repeat them. For example: When we were in our childhood we all were used to listen to stories and fairy-tales. Even if any of them were not real, we all still got scared of those nightmares in that stories or we still applied those charming sights of fairy tales in our real. That was our childhood learning from experiencing different tales.  Apart from childhood if someone is at a big loss in his business or his in personal life and we are able to observe his life we definitely would not learn from his mistakes and experience that why and how is getting through a tough time and we would not like to be willing to repeat mistake like him and experience such a big loss like him. Other's experiences matter if we want to learn from them. It depends on us how we see and take things when we hear or see them.

                         And now the  question raises: Does learning through others experience defy the word "Experience" ? 
It might challenge experience in some aspects, depends upon what kind of experience we are having. Because experience is something practical. Like if someone is doing driving wrong and get injuries from his road accident experience and I was a spectator of his mistake then I obviously do not like to do such a thing like he did and what he made me learn and this does not defy the meaning of the word experience. But depending on someone else's experience much is not the easiest way to live a life because somethings can only be learnt when we give our all to it. And when it comes to relation between mind, body and heart experience, it does relate then because mind is the chamber of thoughts. It senses life events and tell us what is good and bad about them. When we know properties of something we tend to feel them and there comes the chamber of feelings that is our hearts. Our mind and soul learn from experience and they both let the heart to experience how does that feels.
