The principle for Day #36 on the 101-day book report says: "You can't have a better past."

They say that hindsight is 20/20, but I think there's really a distortion effect involved. There are times when I can't seem to remember my successes or what they felt like. There are also times when I forget that my Technical Writing professor told me to never start a sentence with "there are."

I sometimes want to be from somewhere else than Milwaukee. Then people wouldn't guess I was from Fargo.

And I really don't think I'm alone in this regard. Maybe we all want the better past that we can't have. But luckily, depending on who we're with, we can just paint it with different colors.
