This is my first blog......so here goes!
So its holiday season....and ive got my semester break going on...and im back home. Back after a whole month of working hard(seriously...im not kidding) for my jury(thats like an exam). And obviously...it was great to be back here again. Back to my bed...my room...days and days of just chilling out...and meeting my friends again...thats what holidays are for aren't they? Anyway yesterday i was just going through some old stuff...and i found this thing that i call my ''memory box''...nothing really....its this old shoe box that i jus stuck some stuff on and filled up with all sorts of random things...like a 'harry potter' pencil that my friend gave me even though she was a fan herself, the 'Best' part of a 'Best Friend' necklace...my 10th grade time-table....did i say 'nothing really'??? i take my words back....coz everything in that box reminds me of what i was....what i used to be...tiny mementos of the life i let go of a long time back...so why cant i let go of these things then....why do we sit and remember those days when we ourselves chose to move on with life???
The truth is...i miss my childhood...everyone does...and we all secretly want to go back to being kids...but time doesnt turn back, does it?? And no matter how hard we try, we cant go back...maybe thats why we move on.....coz we have to. And unfortunately this journey of moving on isn't that easy...its one hell of a bumpy road...and you've got days when everythings going against you....and thats when you look back upon your life....turn to your memories...coz they take you back to the time when everything was fine....they make you smile.....they tell you in their own way that your bad day will pass....its probably the sense of reassurance that you get from your memories that makes them so special.....you know that even when you're hanging by the last thread....there is something that made your life worth living....and for the sake of these things, however insignificant they may seem, you move on...
i guess thats why you dont give up on memories even when you've given up on everything else.... :)
