noun

the awarenes of how few days are memorable

From the video

Your life is a story. The days flip past, too quickly to absorb, a mess of seemingly random events. So you look back and highlight certain moments as important, as turning points in the main plot. You trace each thread back to its origin, finding omens and ironies scattered along the way, until it all feels inevitable, and your life makes sense. You know how this story is going to end, but you're still eager to skip ahead, dying to know what happens next.
As the song says: 'long live the high tide and long live the low, but above all, long live the difference.'
