Even when I’m feeling miserable, I look back at that point of my life a year or two later and it seems absolutely magical.

In the moment I was living it, there were magical moments interspersed with long debilitating periods of nothingness which were the hard parts.

When we look back in retrospect, we remember the high points. The magical moments. we tend to forget the long boring dull moments or excruciating pain and effort required to earn the magical moments.

And that’s why we romanticize the past.
