Ria Chopra > Quotes

“It has always been a conscious, fundamentally human choice to remember some things, to keep reminders and save keepsakes, to store mementos in a little box on the top shelf in our room and take it down once every year to dust and laugh fondly over. Parallelly, it is a conscious, fundamentally human choice to strive to not remember some things, to throw away old cards, to return old gifts, to refuse to wear a certain colour or go to a certain part of town because it reminds us too much of something that hurts. But I keep circling back to a key question: what happens to us when the internet starts making these choices for us?”
