REFLECTION

WHAT THIS MEANS

When several people recall an evening one way and you recall it another, you are not automatically wrong, but the odds have moved. Memory bends toward whatever made sense to you at the time, and the version that protects your feelings is the one that gets kept. Being the lone holdout is a question worth sitting with rather than a verdict.

If you are the only witness to your version, ask someone who was there to walk through it plainly, and listen without correcting. You can still disagree afterward. What you are testing is whether your account survives contact with theirs.
