It’s common to long for the past, when in the blink of an eye we’re gone. It’s better to carry that weight with you, so you’re more prepared to follow the dark.

Wisdom is misery disguised as age. You have to plant your feet into the ground. You lost the magic in the little things. Imagination died out of necessity. Misery is wisdom as you aged.
