Munro says adults are often tempted to refer to their adolescent behaviour with irony, humour, and amazement, but she implies that it is not always fair to one’s younger self to do so. She says she did “all the stupid, sad, half-ashamed things…that people in love always do.â€Â And then she gives a list of examples. Are you in love now? Have you been love? Have you done some of the “stupid, sad, half-ashamed things†Munro speaks of (pp. 32-33)? Describe the experience, with as much detail as possible, in your journal. Try to avoid speaking of yourself in a derogatory way; after all, as Munro says, this is what people in love always do.
