someone said we had more fun in childhood because we didnt have any past memories to linger on and it has stuck with me ever since
Oh this matters. This matters so much because that’s why the world seems so wonderful as a child.
To everyone reading these words: You can still have this.
Wherever you are, I want you to do one thing right this second:
Stop imagining that you know everything. Look, I do it too. You get wrapped up in your routine and feel like you know what’s coming. But let’s all collectively just forget that for one single hour and watch how your life changes forever.
When you recognize that you don’t know everything, every rose looks interesting because they all have different petals. Every kitten is beautiful because it looks and mews different than it’s sister. Every time you walk outside, even if it’s 10 seconds later, the scene has changed from what it was before. Open once, a bug flies by. Open a second time. No bug. The tragedy of the missing bug, a story written by you in your moments alone.
And you will experience the wonder of the world once more.
