We like to chose particular moments in time to define ourselves, and disregard or weigh less the other moments. It is a much harder lift to think about who we are through many moments without shifting back to the singular moment that allows us a bit of wiggle room and romance.
In other words, we protect our egos viciously. They are all we have, in a way, and also they are paradoxically, less than the totality of who we are in the same way that a moment defines us.
