As time moves on

Log start: 2:04am June 25th 2009

Something tonight just makes me think of the past as i was listening to one of G.E.M. Tang's new song (in chinese: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-2e4aNNX_88&feature=channel_page )



The name of the song is entitled All About You. The lyrics are pretty good but the music that goes with the song would definately be something that you would put into a happy flashback or in a high school senior video that shows the four years that you were there. If you can't catch what i'm saying by now, there's no other way to say it.

But look, today i thought about the past and i started to remember all the good times i had and how i wished that i could relive them. this odd feeling that i usually don't get was sparked by GEM's song >.>
i don't know why it happened though, i usually don't like thinking about the past. not that i don't like it, but everytime i think about the past, i can see past regrets here and there that i wished i did something and then there are things that i wished i didn't do.
i know that people should live their life with no regrets, it's being preached all over the place.
Good job, preachers, you're all fucking losers.

The truth is, not one of us can look back and not regret something. maybe i'm just talking about myself here but if i look at a lecture hall from the front of the room, looking at hundreds of faces, i probably won't be able to find someone who didn't regret a past decision.
simple.

but why is this post entitled "As time moves on"?

One part of the "you should live your life" is true. but that's only 100% true if you're doing whatever you can to fix the wrong. and let's be honest guys, none of us will do that, it's just not practical.

so as time moves on, we think about the past and we just sit there and kick ourselves in the butt. i do it too. all the time. trust me.

there are SO many thing that i wish i did... so many things... that you just regret once you lose the chance to do it.

but as time moves on, what can a person like you and i do at all?
happy or sad, we look back smiling and crying because it's all over with. there's no way to relive it except in our memories.
i can't even bring myself to complete something that i haven't finished doing.

see, this is why i don't like thinking about the past. even if there are happy thoughts, i do not believe that you have more happy thoughts than sad. i really don't think it's posssible.
maybe it's just me, maybe i'm just a little senile.

i dont know what went wrong with this post, i had something to write about in mind but my thoughts just got carried away and now i don't remember what i originally wanted to write. it's so frustrating sometimes.

HakoneDayDreamer, use time wisely, for it is the only thing that you cannot have enough of.
