I understand that some people agree with what I was talking about yesterday; thanks. I also know that some of you disagree and think that I was being too harsh with sites like Facebook, and others like it, when I said I would chose the present over fantasizing about the past. I did mean that. I don't mean that Facebook is a time machine with the ability to transport you to a different era: that is in your head. The different eras and simpler times. Those will always be a part of you. Nobody can ever pry those away from you, ever unless you want to. You can always remember the wild times you had back in the day with all the different manner of self expression you acquired and painstakingly developed through your singular style, self crafted, for sure. They will always be you and nothing can change that, as hard as some of you may try. The only real simple thing about the past is that while some of you had wonderful times developing and making all sorts of friends, others did not. While some of you would gladly visit those old times with shrieks and giggles, others will thankfully shove those same times into a dank smelling, abandoned gym locker with an unknown combination. I'm not inclined to do either, because the present is so much more fun with its crazy uncertainty and who can tell with any degree of certainty, seriously? -not I.
while I am not inclined to actively seek out the past often. I sometimes do stumble on yearbooks and old pictures, as previously mentioned. I don't want to forget. But I don't want to revisit. It is, though, human nature to be curious about some of the people that shared our past. I am not immune to that type of curiosity. I have been known to look up some old classmates and see how life turned out for them, family-wise, matrimony, how many children. It is natural, I accept it. I want to know, to satisfy the simple desire to know. I never try to forget, however, that I stopped being friends with some of those people on purpose, or I chose to no longer pursue some of those friendships. In other cases it was just a matter of growing up and apart. In any event I wont shy away from meeting some of those people now and catching up, honestly, if that happens.
Just a couple of years ago, I could not imagine ever doing that. When I finally left school (or shoved out, it's never really been resolved politely). I never wanted to look back. I just wanted to look forward with the few friends that had braved some funny times, with me. I can now honestly say that I wonder what ever happened to that kid that was perpetually sad and what ever happened to that other weird kid that dressed weird but not quite in a favorable manner. And that loner heavy kid, did he adjust well into adulthood. THE ANSWER IS GOOD ALL AROUND!! I'm not gonna say that I've looked these people up and witnessed happy family photos on social sites, because who does that?- I will say that most of them look good, and I am wishing all of them and you happiness in any and all endeavors and if we do bump into each other and recognize the other feel free to say hello, as I certainly will. have a good week, y'all it's MONDAY!!!
