Sher on Yaad-e-Raftagan

Who can get rid of memories?

None indeed. In fact, memories bring us the pains and pleasures of things past that sustain us through the thick and thin of life. Creative minds make use of memories in most remarkable ways and make the act of living meaningful. Some verses around the subject would help you appreciate how they make our lives meaningful.
