Summary
This quote suggests that in moments of sorrow, our minds have a tendency to idealize or romanticize certain aspects of our lives or the people we have lost. When we are faced with grief or pain, we often remember the good times and qualities of those we have lost, emphasizing their positive attributes and downplaying any flaws or negative experiences. Sorrow can create a distorted perception of reality, making us see things in a more ideal and perfect light, as a way to find solace and comfort in difficult times.
