<< People who can't perfectly remember the past, might be enjoying the present.>>

Wow--I thought that was really neat, Gaug! Probably because I have zero memory. Or I remember weird things-like you did about Mo and the reporter. And a lot of times I remember moods and make up a story to match. Dan says my stories have nothing to do with truth. I think they have everything to do with it; I just make the truth bigger.
He's a lawyer. He should understand what a slippery substance truth is. At the heart of what most people say is the truth. It just gets sanded and primed and painted and decorated until it matches the interior decor.

Some people see externally (the Jungian extravert) and live their psychic life outside of themselves. (Clinton fits his definition perfectly so he may be way too far gone on the scale!) They are "collective" in their thinking, appear altruistic, and how they see themselves depends on how others see them. They dislike self-examination. Their morality is often decided by the majority.
Introverts- and I think we have a lot of those here on this thread- are self-directed, their world subjective. What is perceived is as real as the object itself. Psychic reality is more interesting than objective reality. Life is lived within.

That's us! SO it's ok if what we remember or don't remember fits what others remember. We just saw it internally or something.
