“Memories warm you up from the inside. But they also tear you apart.”
— Haruki Murakami

Simplified Meaning:
Thinking about past happy moments fills you with joy and comfort, making you feel good inside, almost like a warm blanket on a cold day. But at the same time, these memories can also make you sad because they remind you of things that have changed or people you miss. For example, remembering a fun family holiday might make you smile, but it can also make you feel pain if you think about loved ones who are no longer around. These mixed feelings show how memories can be both a source of happiness and sorrow. To handle this, it's good to cherish the warm feelings and accept the sad ones as part of the past. This way, memories can still be precious without causing too much pain.
