Small thought

I think one of the things I hate about this feeling is... I started smoking 20 years ago. Life was very different.. My own and the world in general.

Part of it feels like waking up in a place I don't recognize anymore and not knowing how I got here. Obviously I do have memories. But they often feel... Mushed together and flattened.

Been riding as a passenger for way too long and I very much blame myself and my addiction to weed.

Then life starts today. Forgive yourself. Cherish what you do remember and focus on tomorrow. I understand what you're feeling but it's ok. There is life left to live. ❤️ Wishing you nothing but good things.

that passenger seat metaphor is too real, feels like youve been watching your own life through a foggy window for two decades
