going through some serious musical nostalgia at the moment. listening to all the bands i loved when i was 13, it’s actually quite fantastic and it’s making my realise the contrast in between who i am emotionally, physically, socially, mentally now and then.
i’ve changed a lot. i think it was for the best.
those bands and those songs got me through a lot, like.. a lot and i am eternally grateful, but i’m also so glad that i don’t feel like that anymore.
i still turn to music in a lot of troubled times, but not nearly as much as i used to.
i’m pretty sure i’ve lived through the toughest times of my life and i struggled, but i made it. and even if times did get rough again, which they probably will because that’s life… i think i’d be able to handle it better because i know what works and what doesn’t and what’s healthy. i’d know that there is an end of it all.
that’s pretty motivating stuff. to know that the worst is behind me and i know how to deal with whatever gets thrown at me.
