Nostalgia isn’t only a hell of a drug, but it’s a hell of an addiction too. Chasing times when you last felt good or when you felt things were right. Getting in touch with old flames that you forgot that there were reasons you moved on from, until you read the painful endings as to why those connections died.
Having those rose-tinted shades aren’t always good for you.
No matter how hard things get, they’re actually easy and in no way threaten the ability to survive. The hardest thing in your life is just the current record for how good you are at getting through things. Life’s challenges are opportunities to exercise your resilience. Bad times are something to look forward to because you get to see what’s achievable when you operate at 100%.
