It's not perfectly precise. I do in fact recall some of my life before I met my wife. It's hazy, but lots of things in my past are. But it does feel like the most significant part.
Perhaps our life with the Spirit of Christ will have a similar retrospective. Will the Spirit transform everything, or only what we let Him?
(*) Quite a contrast from the almost cowardly line "I don't want to change your life" from the song "I'd really love to see you tonight."

CS Lewis, and I think he got it from Chesterton, talked about salvation being retroactive, gradually taking over everything that went before it, as we see God's work in us at earlier and earlier moments.
