Lately, I've been thinking a lot about the future and how it's made. What makes up the moments deemed fit for stashing away? How is it that every day seems the same, yet when we look back, it all seems so different? There's a specific line in Mushaboom by Feist that goes: and we'll collect moments one by one // i guess that's how the future's done. It's been running through my head over and over the last few weeks and I've been mulling over the truth in that statement. Really, all the future consists of is collecting moments and making plans. We just have to decide which moments we want to keep and which to discard, which to build our memories with and which to learn from.
much love,
