there is a difference between being nostalgic and living in the
past.
You always jump on your superiority wagon to make you look good
but you're hardly original. Ok, so I'm autistic, living in the
past, nostalgic, old-fashion but so what? Did I win a prize or
broke a law?
Aren't those 2 things the same? According to
ProffessorHouse.com, "living in the past is like visiting and
re-visiting history hoping that the past can alter the present, or
reminiscing on "what might have been, or chewing on plain, old
fashion nostalgia."
Every so often, when I'm in the tranquility of the late night, I
find it therapeutic and heart-warming to dwell in the past - both
happy and sad memories. I look at old photos, old belongings,
revisit past events and ponder what might have been if I were to do
things differently back then. Then I would end the night by drawing
tarot, sort of something to look forward to. If this makes my boat
work, why not?
I don't follow "sayings" of other people to live my life. Why
should I let go of the past? Why can't I dwell on, revisit and
embrace the past?
