If there's one thing I've learned in life, it's that you should never take anything for granted. Relationships and friendships, important experiences, material comforts... these things won't always be there. The object is to remember them, cherish them, work for them, hold onto them. Once something becomes unimportant to you, you start to lose it. And the sad thing is, you don't even realize that it's slipping away.
An alert mind is the key here. An alert mind will remember to be thankful for the things it has, and will do all it can to hold onto them.
As I get older and experience more things, the truth of this starts to really sink in.
The echoes of a time long past
Lost to the caverns of neglect
As a hollow sadness
Consumes your wonder
Lost to the caverns of neglect
As a hollow sadness
Consumes your wonder
Song: "War All the Time" by Thursday. Alternative rock, and somewhat thematically relevant to the blog post.
