Remember When?



Remember when we were young and happy? Remember when you said you loved someone and maybe it wasn’t the first time, but this time you really meant it with all your heart? Remember when you didn’t think about the obstacles or how it was going to work...all you thought of was spending as much time together as possible? I hate that the outcome becomes the memory. Instead think...wow, I was so happy!

Naive? Yes. Yet, so happy. That, my friends is a life experience. Many times we get into the thought process where our great time must have to have a good ending to be a great time. Maybe the key is to think about it in steps, or snapshots. On the practical side... yes, you learned a huge amount from that situation and the hard times made you stronger. Knowing that does help you grow.

But to resist the bitterness you also have to remember the snapshots when you were young and free and gave your heart. Don’t get me wrong, a lot of us wish we hadn’t. But if we hadn’t then, we would have later. And really...wasn’t it fun? Wasn’t it blissful to be so in love that you couldn’t wait for the workday to end or the break between classes? Wasn’t it cool to talk about travelling and getting your own apartment and new jobs with all the hope you had in your heart? Yes, it may be naive, but there’s nothing like that rush and passion before you learn that you’re pushed into being an adult whether you like it or not.

There’s nothing like your first love, but there is greater love waiting.
