Simplified Meaning:
When we remember something from the past, it can feel like it just happened, even if it was many years ago. Our memories bring past moments into the present, making the time between then and now seem shorter. Imagine meeting an old friend after many years. When you talk and remember the good times you shared, it feels like no time has passed. This shows how our minds can bridge long periods with just a thought. By recalling memories, we connect different times in our lives quickly, almost as if we traveled back in time. People can use this idea to feel close to loved ones or past happy moments, helping them find comfort and joy in their everyday lives.
