Memories

Can they be Forced or does it take care to Enjoy them?

Memories are pieces of a person and can be forgotten or forcibly erased but this depends on if the person finds those specific memories enjoyable, a comfort and an experience that benefits them in the long-run, short-run, and at any time. All people can produce memories and they can happen at any time but it’s the nature of tacking on a name to the product of varying emotions that makes them special. What would you do if your memories were deliberately placed inside of you and they were yours but simultaneously not yours at the same time? Memories that you remember as if you were there but the people within them are not ones that you are aware of or recognize in a sense but you do know of those people. How would the reaction(s) of the people involved and you yourself be? False memories could potentially be better than the original memories that you have but it would be a deceitful life for the person itself and feel as if their whole life was all for nothing and incomplete. The branding and inscribing of thoughts that essentially makes a person unique from another. Different people can share the same emotions and feelings but the reactions from the experiences will be regarded in more diverse lights some more positive and others in a more negative sense then the rest are a merging and meshing of experiences. Memories are the things people look back to or reflect usually to symbolize or direct the way that their life has been or make comparisons to the way it is currently to how it was in the past. Memories are not stagnant things they can forever be chaging based on the feelings felt towards them and also be created with time as it passes by. Memories are connections with others and branches that can be seperated by major events and smaller channels in between, this makes memories uniwue akin to a snowflake and different for each person.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
