The past is dangerous these days.

Not being fatalistic here; just trying to state facts. Maybe you've done just swell this whole time, by any human measure. But at least some of what could have been is never going to be.

And no matter how healthy and good-looking you may be right now (and I hope you are - no kidding around), you were almost definitely better-looking and healthier at 24.

And then there's those who are gone. Who you want back so badly.

So - looking back is tricky damn business. For me, anyway - let's leave it at that, since I said I wanted to stick to facts.

That's why this whole picture-taking thing has meant so much to me lately. No past, no future, just the light right now.
