We each make the past the way we wanted it to be.
Based on our own desires to conform reality to the experiences we are each addicted.
If we desire to experience the joy in our own lives, we tend to remember the joyous moments, and forget those less so.
The opposite is also true.
For each who is of joyous desire, there must be one who desires the pain.
This is nature’s drive to equilibrium. Balance.
