Hi :)) I agree with you. Imagination and memory play a big role in our life. Good and pleasant memories make our imagination work, so that we are able to repeat or get similar sensations. Negative memories, on the contrary, try to protect us from mistakes.
True but for all that, nothing seams to outperform situational awareness.
Pleasure comes and goes, but when we seek it we loose connection with what is as we try to control what is not. Strategy of how to bring more comfort or how to hold it or how avoid pain, much of it is the very turbulence and non graceful tension that causes the very turbulence that hurts.
