Changes
I think i always have to chuckle a littlebit when i read about all the life’s struggles that people are going through. All the discovery, the change, the “rebirths” Its funny because i remember how things were when i went through the same things.
Sure, everyone’s story is different; but the overall plotline remains the same. Life brings us experience and change; and as we experience new things… we find that some of our changes were not necessarily for the best and we wish to change back…
But as the saying goes, “you can never go home again” No matter what we try (and we keep on trying) things will never go back the same as before. We struggle and struggle to return to the security of our past; the comfort of what has been… and yet we forget that during those times we struggled as well… trying to change because we were not really satisfied with it. As Mantha tells me, “we tend to glaze over the troubles of our past and see it as such a perfect world” (ok, those arent her exact words but you get the idea) what is “past” is always seemingly more comforting because we know what happened. It has already happened and we cannot change it; so there is stability in it. We fear what is unknown, and a life of change is full of… unknowns.
Human life will continue to be filled with a return to the past, and a grasp of the future. People will always long for the good ol days, even when those good ol’ days were days they longed for different… good ol’ days. slowly piece by piece, we will discover more about who we are; and will eventually find that today is as good as it gets, and there will always be a tomorrow.
