"Human beings naturally tend to collect concrete evidences to support their memories. When something important happens, we take a picture. On vacation, we might pick up souvenirs: a T-shirt, a coffee mug, or a postcard. The preciousness of this material evidence of where we have been, with whom, and what we did reveals two important truths about memory: There are things we want to remember forever, and we are not sure that memory itself will suffice. Certainly, memory provides crucial support for many mundane activities. But our memories are also precious because they represent a lasting imprint of our experiences, moments from the past that give our lives meaning."
And then there are some things, some memories, that we never want to remember again. Or at least, trying our very best not to.
Stay safe and happy, guys x
