“We do not remember days we remember moments”-cesare pavese

The day is filled with garbage. The awkward small talk you endure in every situation can really clog up a day. You will often leave these aspects out. Yet still call it a day. I think this quote represents an idea in which the memorable are only memorable if they are still just as fantastic when taken out of context. You don’t need the entire day to represent the feeling you get from an event. That is what makes it great. In a way, it just means that this circumstance stands out. The fact that it’s different from the everyday boredom is what makes it better, and wholesome out of context. Existence has a spectrum. You can label it in many different ways. Similar to the balance of life. When a moment really stands out so much as to be memorable, better out of context, it has made a leap on the spectrum. An anomoly. An outlier, to set the average astray. This creates the illusion that the day was the memorable subject. The spectrum has to be understood in this context as the positive/negative of the situation not mood. As the positive/negative of your mood will be skewed similar to a median after the fact of this moment. This also can create illusions similar to the mood spectrum mistake. When something jumps on the spectrum it will most likely fall again revealing the gruel of the modern man.
