Our traditions teach us the past is not forgot, yet the past repeats the future believe it or not. If we dwell on the negative, we continue to make, an unhealthy life we must never forsake. Our fairy ring teaches us cause and effect, what we give to the world, returns to us direct! ” Chepi, See the Little People…An Enchanting Adventure Chris DiSano Davenport
About This Quote

When Nelson Mandela said, “Our traditions teach us the past is not forgot, yet the past repeats the future believe it or not. If we dwell on the negative, we continue to make, an unhealthy life we must never forsake. Our fairy ring teaches us cause and effect, what we give to the world, returns to us direct!”Chepi, See the Little People…An Enchanting Adventure is a passage from a book of African folklore. It tells how every part of the process of life works in a cyclical way.

First, things happen that seem negative. Then they turn out to be helpful; then they become negative again; and then they turn out to be very helpful and lead to something positive. The lesson of this passage is that there is no need for you to dwell on things that happen in your life that make you unhappy.

Instead, focus on what you can do to make your life more fulfilling and happy.
