A Race Against Time
Imagery by Vanessa Lovos
May the odds be ever in your favor…
Do you ever wish you could go back to a specific time in your life? Whenever I feel stressed I always think about this one summer I went to the country, where my grandparents on my dad’s side lived. And how my cousins and I would go hiking and just play around all day without a care in the world.
No cell phones, no need to wear trendy clothes, not having yet experienced loneliness, heartbreak, the fear of being judged for not accomplishing certain things, and all the other bs we are subjected to on a day to day basis today. Just kids running free, a simpler time.
It is so bizarre how when you’re young you wish to be an adult so bad then when adulting hits you like a ton of bricks you can’t help but to reminisce and go back to that place in your head where you felt so safe once…
just some thoughts, that’s all.
