You probably shouldn't. Look forward, is what the books say.

Yet should we forget the past we forget ourselves.

That's why I keep journals.

Do you write for your own memory, or do you write to pay tribute to who you are and where you come from?

...Is that strange? I do it for my memory, because I forget most things. I'm not paying tribute to anyone.

[bloodful]

I am not one to define strange. [ He nods to the table near by. Join him? ]

For me, I think it is important to remember what has happened. In story, in song, in night of reflections maybe -- [ He'll take a seat himself and start rolling clove ] less because you cannot recall your moments and more because who you are is written in your past.

But we all walk different ways, hm?
