Don't Ever Go Back ...

Is it worth it - to return to a place that has made you so happy and contented? The place will remain as it is but it is we who have a different perspective. Our expectations too will have changed. We will have outgrown what we like about that place. Worse of all if that place has changed or no more. What we feel then will not be the same anymore. It will leave us feeling sad and a sense of loss of that moment of time.

It will be so sad to walk the trail alone. The happiness you once felt will only leave a sense of longing and emptiness. Sadness and desolation. Loneliness. I used to return to a place which held very special memories. I kept returning to that place a few times on my own over the years. It made me felt the feeling of acute sense of loss. A sense of regret. A sense of hopelessness. That it was not worth returning anymore. It was difficult to let go I suppose ..

Don't ever go back unless it is with the same person. It will never measure up to the first time. It is wiser to leave the past behind with that moment imbedded deep in your mind and heart. Thus, you carry that happiness and remember that place that you loved so much forever - intact and unchanged. Always the same in your mind and heart ....
