You will have times in your life when you grab for straws…. Usually when your options don’t look that promising

in hopes that something good from the past can be  reunited or reconstructed…. Foolish fantasy

Even if you could find all the pieces….. but you won’t…. those parts are weathered and worn and they don’t fit anymore

People change… places change and circumstances change…. Just the way it is

like trying to squeeze into a suit you wore 30 years ago…. You may get into it but you won’t be comfortable

you can reminisce all you want and treasure what was…. But you can’t go back…all the plans you had in your head were wishful thinking

Accept what was…..but you can’t go back… just forward

memories are to be treasure not buried but thinking they can be revived and expanded upon is like building a bridge out of toothpicks….. it won’t last and it shouldn’t

the past is called that because it is gone…. You can’t go back… just forward and your plans would have been better if they included…..reality
