Wow. I found myself also back at high school while I read that. The forgetting of names, and still some dreams back there and then as if nothing has changed.
That was a good post. I also have fond memories of Counterstrike 1.6 in 3rd world cyber cafes.
I remember seeing that moon too. It was really big and bright, haven't seen one that big for a while. It's strange how this big space rock can be a shared experience all over the world.
Thanks a lot, I am doing somewhat ok. I have been busy writing a few things but did not share them yet. I will be back on track really soon. It is good to see there are people who cares about the stuff I write. I really did not want to post stuff like the last thing I posted every single day. It was best for me to take a break for a while. Bad mood is contagious, hope I did not bring people's mood down.
remembering the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hedonic_treadmill you can only hope that, with enough mental discipline, one can escape it. only shows how buddhism and taoism leads correctly here, or https://christdesert.org/rule-of-st-benedict/chapter-4-the-tools-for-good-works/ and other ascetic codes. people will always find something to be miserable, the most insignificant things it seems, me included
