Reflection

Looking back, nostalgia permeating my core. Mistakes made, friendships grown, epiphanies and realizations dotted through the course of time. Sitting wrapped in blankets, running as the wind tried to push me back, exploring whole worlds through the words of another, learning, forever learning. Trying to keep up with the pace of life, only to fail miserably. Getting up and dusting myself off, sprinting to catch up, laughter lost on the breeze. Wounds and injuries and scratches and pain inside my very soul, now healed and patched up with only the echo of a scar to remind me. 

Laughter and and smiles freely given out to the world, tears and sobs shown and judged. Heartbreak, heartache, heart lifted up to the sky on the wind of a thousand whispers. True colours being shown and flown up high. Forgiveness and betrayal come in the same package. Thoughts and ideas appearing, disappearing, breakthroughs can come to me any minute.

So much past, mistakes, regrets, weighing me down. Let them free. Let them go. The past is the past and is written in stone, the present is right now, this second, this minute, this thought, this idea, this everything. The future is forever-changing, change it to whatever you want it to be, take advantage of your past mistakes and wield wisdom where there was once naïveté. Realize impossible things. 

So reflect, but don't take too long. 

The future is waiting for us.
