So you can look at that one part, one thing - who was I then, how did I view things, look at things, feel things then. You don't have to contextualize, "well back when I was 14 and I thought that..." it gives the power to the moment, to the space, and not to the context of that space. The context itself can come from the way it is written, the space from which the writer can speak, or the way the writer can decide to ignore that context and just give you that moment....now who's the rambler?
