‘Missing Pieces’
Memories are like pieces of jigsaws that each represents the evidence of situation that we have experienced in the past. Some are good, and some may be bad. Living through time, memory can be distorted by every single new event we’re facing in everyday life. Therefore, how can we discern if the memory we remember is still the same as what it actually was in the past? People always fulfil these pieces of memories alluded earlier to complete their stories. Even though memory is sometimes a two-edged sword for its owner, it is how people gathering these puzzles that shape the way these memories will affect their life-to enhance or to destroy.
This song was rearrangd by the combination of five missing notes from the song in my memory ‘Minuet in G’ MWV 116 by Johann Sebastian Bach.
