Have you ever had that feeling, that for just one second your drawn back in time. To another place somewhere far away. Your thoughts are running away, you think about a past time, and just for that second you can feel yourself being in that moment, in that room, with all the people that was everything for you.
Once the second is over, you return to today.
Its funny how people come and go in life, and how someone at one point in time was everything for you, and years later you struggle to remember their face, or their voice.
You move on, you find others to connect with, love and have fun with.
And then one day, for a brief moment you remember the feeling you had years ago. And you start missing them. You start missing the life you had, the smell of your apartment, the feeling of waking up in a familiar place. You start missing the cold air, the dark nights and drinking tea while watching the housewife's with your friends. The friends you had and shared everything with that you now lost contact with.
Perhaps the past just seems so good because there is nothing annoying or boring in it. There is no washing to be done, no exam preparations, no work commitments or every day life duties such as paying bills. No pressure on what is to come, where to go and what to do. No recollections of drama, disappointments, betray or failures. It is in fact a memory, where all the hard yards have already been walked and forgotten. Maybe thats why it feels so good to revisit now and then, and let one self be consumed by nostalgia...
