Simplified Meaning:
When we look back on our past, our emotions often have a way of making us remember happy moments clearly while forgetting or downplaying the sad or painful ones. For example, think about old friendships. You might remember the fun times you shared with a friend, like laughing at jokes or going on adventures, more vividly than the arguments or misunderstandings you had. This natural tendency helps us feel more positive about our lives and experiences. By focusing on the good times, it’s easier to stay optimistic and happy. You can use this in your life by trying to focus more on positive memories and not dwell too much on the negative ones, which can help you feel better and maintain a happier outlook.
