sometimes, i can’t help but look back at the past and feel this heavy weight in my chest. there was a time when everything seemed brighter—when laughter came easy and the days stretched out like endless summer afternoons. we spent hours outside, running through fields and lying on the grass, looking up at the sky, dreaming about our futures. life felt simple and full of promise.
but now, it feels like each year just drags us down a little more. the joy we used to find in small things is harder to grasp. it’s like trying to catch smoke with our bare hands. we scroll through our feeds, searching for connection, but it all feels so distant and hollow. the laughter of friends now echoes like a faint memory, overshadowed by the noise of everyday life—responsibilities, expectations, and all the weight we carry.
i miss those moments when happiness felt effortless, when we didn’t worry about what was next or what we were supposed to be doing. feels like i'm always holding my breath, hoping for something to finally change for the better, but it really never does. it only gets worse. each year seems to blend into the next, and it’s hard not to feel lost in the routine.
as we sit and reflect, there’s this aching nostalgia for the past—those golden days we can never really get back. it’s bittersweet, you know? we can only hold on to the memories, the fragments of joy that still linger, like whispers in the wind, reminding us of a time when life felt so much more alive.
