Reminiscing

Quarter till 1 am…

found a fond memory that almost feels like a century ago of a friend I met in the Bahamas. He was a kind soul. We connected. He was my guide on grad week…

Finding out he grew up 30 mins away from my hometown, we talked more. He played guitar and sang beautifully. Reminded me of a dear friend who I lost to life, a few years back.

Probably why we connected more.. I had forgotten about this memory, the goofy times, the times that were so fun that it feels out of touch with reality today.… like that happened?

I thought about him today. Then i thought about a few others.. and one friend I grew up with since kindergarten.

I lost a few friends along the way as I grew up. But the memories stay stored in my pocket on the rainy days. I miss those golden days.

The days I didn’t think too hard, the days I acted carefree and so wildly that when tragedy struck, it hurt, but it didnt linger.

So instead, I’ll reminisce on the days that felt full…
