RE: Not the Coast I Remember…

in WORLD OF XPILAR9 days ago

when we go back to places that we had a strong attachment at some point in our past — and they don't quite feel like they used to — the truth is that the places haven't really changed, but we have changed.

Yeah, we're the one who changed. I did go back to my old elementary school, the whole buildings were rebuilt but the man who sold toys on his bicycle at the front gate of the school is still there. My old friends still living close to the school. But I felt there's always something missing there...

It's not the place but it's about the people lived in our memories, many of them have gone, or keep a social distancing for some reasons. Thanks for sharing 🙌 Happy Year 🎊🎊

Yes, so often it is about the people much more than the places we have the strong attachments to. We're not the same people we were a long time ago... and that's a good thing, because it means (hopefully!) that we have grown!
