: Hi, It would seem to be that a fours creativity and inspiration seeking would make them future-oriented in terms of where we think the best times of our life are. We really see the past as rather unhappy. As billy Joel said, "The good old days weren't all that good." That's not to say however, that we don't often reflect on sad moments of the past; we do. I know I do often as R & H say, sometimes take one special moment and milk it for all the emotional juice it's worth. As far as conversation goes, I rehearse, or more to the point fantasize, many a conversation in my head. Of course, the other person never really says what I would want them to say, so I must listen well, and then give my best authentic response in the moment.
