We always reminisce about our past. The people that used to meant the world to us, the little things that put a smile across our faces. We always think that we were much more happier in the past. If you realise, most of the times the first thing you do when you have a flashback about the past is you will smile to yourself.
No matter how dark our past is, most of us will always feel that we are more happier back then. The reason why we always thought our past is fill with so much joy is probably because we choose to remember the happy memories. As we grow older and as time pass, we tend to actually throw all the unwanted and bad memories. In other words, we dont want to remember the bad things or embarassing events that happened to us in the past. We always try to make ourselves feel that we are alright all along.
To put it simpler, when we discard all the unwanted memories from our past, we will only be left with the happy memories. These are the ones that takes up most of the space in our memories. We only think our past is filled with happiness because we want it to be so. Its normal for us to run away from reality, drawing a smile on our faces to cover the sad smile that lies behind. We are humans, after all.
