memories

You know how a song, a season, a book, a smell, it can pull up a feeling from the past? One you like, one from when you were hurt, or from when you were happy. It brings memories and you can feel thme or see them, so vivid its as if they were happening again and if you close your eyes and sit still, the sensations wash over you, so clearly.

You feel the memories and you want to have it back. You want to be with those people again. You want those feelings back, because they made you happy. But things can never ever be the same. People change, life changes. It doesn't work like it once did, and no amount of wistfulness is ever going to bring it back.

I can think of exactly what was happening last year around this time. Things were changing, just like they always are. I was so excited and nervous and naive. And what was going on is something I'll never ever relive.

Relish the memories, live for today.
