With respect to the loop/revisit question, I have fond memories, times of peace all remembered with rose-colored glasses. I know the glasses exist. Also, as you pointed out, the me now wouldn’t enjoy those times in the same way as that me then. The this me now will continue to work towards future moments of peace love and peanut brittle (shout out for you AJ. ) I hope you[‘ll all join me in a pain-free, peace-full, well-fed, educated, healthy, emotionally uplifted, etc, future. Happy Birthday
A disabled person faces challenge and change to some degree every day and faces major change more than most people (physically, spiritually, mentally, etc) I personally deal with change with detailed organization and constant vigilance to ensure up-to-date knowledge. Most would claim that my description of myself is classic PTSD hyper-vigilance, whatever. I like to be informed and prepared when the sh*t hits the fan.
I have never liked change, unless I am the one to initiate it. As a rule, experience taught me that most (but, not all) change has always been for the worse. There is no era in my past that I would ever care to revisit, ever. There is nothing worth reliving.
