Qualunque tipo di relazione implica emozioni, che lasciano in noi un'impronta più duratura. Ricordiamo di aver amato e odiato, abbiamo una vaga idea di cos'è successo, ma nomi, volti, date e dettagli si cancellano facilmente dalla nostra memoria. Per fortuna, le emozioni restano. Altrimenti la nostra personalità, forgiata nel corso di innumerevoli esperienze, si dissolverebbe insieme ai ricordi.

A mirror hung between the shelves. Clara stepped in front of it and let her fingers run over the silver roses that covered the frame. She had never seen anything so beautiful.

Now become the choice maker who can consciously decide to put that thought back into the running stream and pick a different one, a thought that perhaps allows you to feel better.
~ Wayne W. Dyer
A bloody hand had left its imprint on a lampshade. Squiggly marks slid down the wall, as if a child had been creating a macabre fingerpainting there.

What we remember from childhood we remember forever — permanent ghosts, stamped, imprinted, eternally seen.
