Today was a bitter sweet day. On the one hand I went to a place filled with great memories from my childhood. And on the other, I could see how time had flown by me in a matter of seconds.
It’s crazy how times passes. How everything changes so quickly, and yet so slowly. Years have to go by for you to even notice something has changed. But when you look behind you, you feel like it’s been only minutes.
I can’t remember much about what I was thinking nearly a decade ago when I used to frequent this place, and that makes me terribly sad. It’s like I lost a whole era of myself. And yet, all the information is in me, whether I know it or not. Every lesson, every mistake, every tear. It’s engraved in me forever. I just can’t seem to place inside me.
Time is cruel. And at the same time, fair.
It’s like that Modest Mouse song: “The years go fast and the days go so slow.”
It’s so true that even the experiences you don’t remember are IN you, and they are what make you you. So let’s try (I’m trying very hard these days) to forget about what’s happened and to make the most out of what’s left. You got this!
