    True, except even then, without that experience & blurred memory, TW couldn’t have written the aphorism, could he?
    Too, sometimes our memory is but a seed from which our mental and emotional processes produce a bountiful, often fanciful, crop, right?
    Methinks Mr. Williams would agree. Thanks for sharing TW’s rumination, Deborah.
