We lose ourselves as we grow. Day by day, routine by routine, and at the end of it all, we’re more tired than we have ever been. And we grow up wondering why. Wondering why as we grow older, our birthday cakes never taste as good as the previous year’s. Wondering why we walk so much quicker and see so much less recently. Wondering why, for all the work we’ve put in over the years, we end up with merely this. Wondering why we always remember things yet to be done, yet cannot remember the things others do for us.
Maybe it’s time to redefine the function of the memory. To readjust priorities to the realisation that certain things that used to matter a lot - a trim waist, a perfect love,a perfect figure, a perfect everything - matter less in the bigger scheme of things.
