They say that hindsight is 20/20, but maybe that isn't always a good thing. People could use their hindsight to look into their past clearly, but why would they want to do that? To see the calm before the storm?
Perhaps their whole life has been a storm.
A destructive tornado that destroys everything important to them and throws them far, far away. Possessions, memories, people.
