Re-imagined

 

I suppose memories are very personal and should not be tampered with, but there is a certain type of memory that just grates on me.

It is the re-imagined, or reinvented memory that never existed in the first place.

Women who suddenly start referring to their mothers and fathers as mommy and daddy are in that category.

People who glorify relationships that were never that great, or make good ones sound fashionably hectic now when they tell stories irk me.

Just because some television show you watched made it look cool for you to act weird, or do strange things to your siblings, is not a good reason to re-imagine your history.

Life is what it is. 

It is not necessary to over emote, or create absurd scenarios to be cool.

Coolness comes from having the guts to be you.
