Memories. Aww. Memories. I am, more often than not, swamped in the pool of nostalgia. I love memories. I love looking back at life and pondering over what it has given me and what it hasn’t. Going down memory lane is an exercise that can be energising and exasperating. Nonetheless, it’s something I believe that has to be done. After all, a person’s history, however small, is sure to be filled with moments of happiness and moments of pain, serving as a perfect reminder of how life is nothing but a blend of the two all the time.
