“Memory is a choice.”
Ocean Vuong On Earth We’re Briefly Gorgeous
I love this quotation from Vietnamese author Ocean Vuong (isn’t that a great name?) in his fascinating and time-denying novel On Earth We’re Briefly Gorgeous.
He’s right—memory certainly is a choice. I have brothers, and our memories of past events are quite often barely recognizable. And, of course, we sometimes simply choose not to remember certain aspects of the past.

So true! I have three sisters and you would think we didn’t grow up in the same home.
