Revisionist Memory — Rewriting The Good Ol’ Days

Memory rarely tells the truth. It isn’t a neutral archive; it’s an artist, reshaping scenes to fit the narrative we need. What was once unbearable becomes romantic. What was once a struggle transforms into grit. 

This is revisionist memory — not a lie, but a re-vision, an alchemy that makes the past more beautiful in hindsight than it ever was at the time.
