good times and bad times, cosmetic time
Memory is a notoriously biased and sentimental editor,
selecting what it wants to keep and invariably making a few cosmetic changes to past events.
With rose-colored hindsight,
the good times become magical;
the bad times fade and eventually disappear,
leaving only a seductive blur of sunlit days and the laughter of friends.

Was it really like that?
Would it be like that again?
