stays and you can't hide from it.
Grandfather, and if, for example, a person does not remember what happened to him, then, it turns out, he lives like a fish in the world - without a past?
Memory is a territory covered with the mist of mystification, where wild wolves of anger and sorrow live, over which the feeling of guilt circles, falling down like a kite and digging into the same bleeding wound with a sharp beak. This is a place with mirages of bliss and creepy ghosts that can whisper destructive motives.
