A few months ago:The cold concrete floor.An Early Summer morning.
We're all too busy cramming up last minute answers on the Exam morning.
We're making memories to last a lifetime,maybe longer even,and we're not even aware.
...
If only I could go back and tell myself to hold onto the moment a bit longer,a bit firmer,because soon,I would want that very moment so bad.
*Invisible readers*: No! Not with your nostalgic posts again dude!
Me : Just bear with me.I need to get this of my mind?
We all grow up,grow apart.Lose and forget what we once loved.What's the big deal? It's just called moving on in life,it's what everybody does,no?
Well,to kids like me out there,it is quite a huge deal,actually.We're told to forget the people we grew up with,a part of our support system.Move on,and adapt to new habitats.
That's how survival works.That's how life works.
But does it have to be so harsh? Do we really have to leave behind all that we love?
Is memories the only thing promised to us?
If you ask me,growing up was never easy for anybody.
But the hardest part is building anew.and acting like it's meant to be that way.
To be in a new,confusing,challenging,exciting world that faces us now.
A world that replaces the safety blanket that kept us warm and happy,always with a cloudy sky,with only glimpses of sunlight.
Replacing what seems to be the irreplacable,seems to be an art of its own,a skill.
And I'm sure we'll all get good at it someday.
For now,I'll just take a nap and dream of the good 'ol days.
