Nostalgia, you dirty, dirty whore.

nos·tal·gia noun : pleasure and sadness that is caused by remembering something from the past and wishing that you could experience it again. 1.: the state of being homesick : homesickness 2: a wistful or excessively sentimental yearning for return to or of some past period or irrecoverable condition; also : something that evokes nostalgia Nostalgia comes in many forms, old photographs, songs from the past, perhaps even seeing a familiar face. All these things can either make you happy, or they can make you feel so completely devestated that they are all in the past and over and you'll never re-live them that you sit on your ass eating ice cream, and crying. I've been having a lot of nostalgia lately. I've spent many a night sipstting on my ass doing the later of the two side effects of nostalgia. I've tried to let it go and move on, but it's hard. There have been a lot of influencial moments in my life. The ups, such as the many nights I spent with my friends back home, talking about just.. everything, crying, laughing, just taking a moment to share things amongst friends. And even some of the downs such as losing my Dad to cancer, the silly little heartbreaks that I thought ended my very life as I knew it. So is there a remedy for nostalgia? Maybe, Maybe not. I do know however, the blow is softened if you try to focus on the moment you live in. Enjoy life, before time flies and you end up nostalgiac over the life you should have appreciated whilst you were so occupied missing the past Anyway, that's all for now. BYYEEEE!(:
