The idea of forgetting is devastating.⠀My past has shaped me into I am in the present,⠀how will I get to know this wonderful person if I can't recall what molded h♡r this way?⠀How will my judgment machinate the improvement of her character for the future?⠀I dislike coaxing through life aimlessly ──── if I let myself go with the flow,⠀abandoning ambition for comfort,⠀then at what point did I exchange my innate wonder for compliance?

It saddens me so that can't recollect tragedies⠀&⠀blights as naturally as my dear counterparts . . . All I can do is embrace them through haunting memories.⠀I'm in limbo as our personification of Purity.⠀I carry the privilege of being our Love⠀&⠀Hope,⠀but it pains me that I can't touch their sorrows . . .

Hello Callie. I am devastated. I had the most awesome answer typed out and accidentally closed the tab. It did not give me a warning at all. Here is a very sorrowful and short version of what I had to say 💔

I like the idea of remembering things more than I actually do the action of remembering things. My memories are more associated with however I felt in the moment more than the actual moment itself which makes a lot of trouble for me 💧 Scents are really the only things that stick with me because I think it is quite hard to forget the way something smelled, so they are my favorite things to remember.

Overall,,,.,., Memory is a very mushed thing for me,..., Most everything really comes and goes and majority of it is in blurry little blobsss..... WHICH is why I would like to start archiving things more and such,.,. I want to start taking pictures and really writing about my day, 'cuz forgetting doesss make me saddd.ddd

I'd like to be most defined by my present ^^ It's like getting a software update, yk?? Like,, Here is the most up to date version of myself, please use it and marvel at how I've changed & improved !!! I like tooo look at people as their present selves ttooo thoughhh some people never rreally seem to fix their bugs yk..................................

oh how i wish i could remember all the best memories of my life.. all the math formulas i “memorised”… but i seem to forget easily, and im easily distracted too ☹️
its prolly because i consume short-form content from time to time, and the fact that social media has derived me from my attention-span so that i have a lesser want to watch long stuff now. ill probably work on it.. later!

my life is all of the things combined: the past, the future, and the present, but not necessarily equally :3 the past encompasses most of what i am today, with the present doodled here and there, and the future is not exactly what i think about most of the time.. its very scary and blurry tee bee age..(tbh)

i cant really control what i like to remember. its weird but i cant will myself to remember a certain thing because either my brain just refuses to or it comes up with slightly unrelated stuff :// i usually have to think a bit about it to remember most of a memory! its like.. i cant bring to mind the words i want for a convo, its just at the tip of my tongue yet i cant spell it out. im sure some of us relate to this as well? or when i try and think of something to say and my birthday party that happened two years ago pops up, and it feels like it only happened a few months ago. my memory tends to have jumps between time lapses like dat, its confusing asl UGHFHDG

As of late, I don't really think I like 'remembering'. I guess the way I see this question is that I see and feel like I'm living all three: the past and the nostalgia it brings, the present in the sense that there's little time until I graduate (so I should spend that time well, right?), and the future in the sense that it's all that's ever shoved down my throat and that I have little plan for.

So I guess I don't have a "most me" because all three points in life are ingrained in me, for better or for worse.

I will say that I do enjoy remembering the past the most as all of my happiest moments were in the past. Sounds kind of sad as I write that but whatever. One of the TV Tropes I identify myself with is "Glory Days" as I tend to wish I could go back to the past where it all felt easier.

Sorry for the ramble but I found the question interesting.
