In this excerpt from Leo Tolstoy’s "The Death of Ivan Ilyich", the sentences that best shows how Ivan Ilyich struggles with his life and his inability to let go of his past are:
"He was hindered from getting into it by his conviction that his life had been a good one. That very justification of his life held him fast and prevented his moving forward, and it caused him most torment of all."
In this two sentences, we can see that Ivan Ilyich cannot comprehend what is happening to him if his life had been so god. His past happiness does not allow him to accept his current situation. Ivan Ilyich is aware of this incapacity of letting go of his past and feels frustrated and depressed because of it.

He used to tell untrue stories about his grand pa which he knew from the TV or movies and his friends believed him and thought that his grand pa is amazing but when his grand pa visited them he was so embarrasses of him because he didn't look like the way he told his friends about. He was very short and had grey hair and he was old two. but when martin's friends visited him to see his grand pa he was so ashamed and he thought that his friends will make fun of him and his grand pa but instead they loved his grand pa and thought that he is amazing and martin was so sad because he was embarrassed of his grand pa, so now he loves his grand pa and says that he is amazing.
He learned that he must not be embarrassed of his cultures or traditions. Before the grand pa died he gave him the medicine bag.
