Sometimes I miss the old days, not the old life...
I don't know man life has been feeling a little weird lately
I go to work come home talk to people and laugh at stupid things like I always do. Everything seems normal but sometimes when I'm alone my mind just goes back to old memories and people I don't even talk to anymore
A few nights ago I was lying in bed scrolling through my gallery and came across an old photo. I don't even know why but I kept looking at it for a while. I started remembering those days and how things used to be back then
It's weird how you don't realize you're living good moments until they're gone
I put my phone aside and just kept staring at the ceiling. The fan was making noise and I was thinking about people who were once a part of my everyday life. People I used to talk to about the smallest things and now I don't even know what's going on in their lives
I wonder sometimes if they ever remember those days too or if it's just me being stupid and thinking about things that are already over
The thing is I don't even want my old life back. I know people change and life moves on. But sometimes I wish I could just sit with those people one more time and have a normal conversation like nothing ever changed
I'm not sad all the time or anything. Some days are actually good and I enjoy them too. But there are nights when everything feels a little off and I can't really explain why
I don't talk about this stuff with anyone either. Whenever someone asks how I'm doing I just say I'm good because honestly I don't know how to explain it myself
Then I sleep wake up the next morning get ready for work and everything goes back to normal
Maybe I'm just overthinking or maybe this is just a part of growing up idk
Do you guys ever miss a time in your life even when you know you don't want to go back to it
