RE: A Walk In The Park (a bit more than that)

in Wednesday Walk2 years ago

I am taking the mood of this writing to be that you are very happy with your life now, and that certainly is the best way to revisit the past

As happy as I can be haha. That's a good question, I realized that I didn't spend much time with my mother in the last 10 years, so she was a little bit unsettled by my demeanor, I am not the happy-go-lucky guy I was in my 20s, I am going to reach 40 in a few years, so the attitude changed a lot. So I probably don't look as happy as I was in my 20s, because I smile less, but it doesn't mean I am not happier now. Does it make sense? hahaha...

Although it is a bit sad because my parents are getting very old. I can feel the clock ticking.

Yeah I feel the same way too, holding my mum in my arms, she felt so fragile and little. Also, I am 15 kg heavier than I was last time I held her, so for her she feels like a child now. Going full circle...

Those naked trees look so pretty and sleepy in these pictures.

Naked trees oooh la la, they're saying "buy me a drink first". 😁

Sort:  

Yes, it makes sense. I am 36 and a half, and definitely not the happy-go-lucky 20-year-old I once was. But pretty sure that is a good thing. The back half of 30 is just so much smarter than the front half of 20.

Going full circle...

...is terrible. I try to remember it is kind of pretty in nature. Spring, summer, fall, winter. But no. It isn't pretty with your loved ones. My parents are shrinking too.

It must be almost time for those trees to put on their finery again - better hurry with that drink :)
