moments i’ll never forget:
- every room I’ve lived in
- my maltese
- mom’s first outrage at me
- the first broken friendship, and the most last few
- the first heartache
- pins pushed up on myself
- seconds before every dance recital
- slick bun hair for ballet exams
- the chocolate cake from Lyon
- that meaningful encounter in the movie-like scenes
- first ice skate with a guy
- hospital nights
- sharing sandwiches with the first kiss
- the first unintentional all-nighter
i realize as i write this, my mind is filled with endless memories of single encounters, friendships, brokenness, utter grace, and happiness. there’s not a list i could write that could encompass every single experience i’ve had that i will never forget. the human mind is such a strange, complex thing. i’ve once heard that you never truly forget a memory, but it just more cloudy each time you think about it.
