Reminiscence


What is it about the past? We reminisce as if we have never known happiness. As if content and satisfaction are alien to us. Often i find myself pondering what i should have done and said, and how my responses would alter my present from what it is. The downside of having a sharp memory is that you remember that bad times twice as much as the good ones. Like they say : Nostalgia is just like an english grammer lesson... You find the present tense, but the past perfect!
