I might be opening a can of worms or snakes as I ponder “the memories of me” by the thousands I’ve touched in someway. Don’t get me wrong I’ve never acted in a way that truly brings shame to my name or values although I’m sure I touched on a few edges as we all have. Yet I wonder what others might have perceived of me in my most difficult times? Could I have been insensitive or even a bit cruel as I rushed on with life as others were facing a “life crisis” that left them with memories of me I would have hoped they forgot’? Did I act in a vengeful way when I felt wronged which left them with a perception of me which was far from my normal reality? I can’t control the memories others might have of me but I wonder what they were and if they were based on reality or the perceived reality that they will hold many years later.
