# Our perspective on the past keeps evolving Each time we look at our past, we see things differently. As times passes, the way we look at and think about the world changes. We know more, we have more experience, we have faced more difficulties, etc. Those experiences profoundly change us, and deeply affect the way we look at past events. We may be disappointed and angry at people for hurting us in the moment, and later realize that they were the ones suffering. We just couldn't see it initially. No narrative is ever finalized, no matter how sure and settled it may feel in the moment. How you tell the story of yourself, how you make sense of things that happened to you or relationships you had, will keep changing as you change - sometimes in small ways, other times in ways that shift the whole narrative or highlight something completely new. ## References - https://x.com/pangmeli/status/1462921263740076033
