A sad realization
It was a slow day at work today so I went outside and watched the sun set over the subway across the street. And I remembered when I was little, riding my bike and I was watching the sunset and it looked as if two comets collided into a rainbow while god sets the sky a blaze (poetic I know).
The world is beautiful and so fascinating when you’re a kid.
Nowadays I see a sunset and I think, at best, a screen saver. I wonder at what point in my life did I become so cynical? So sarcastic? At what point in my life did I lose the jovial nonchalance of my youth?
I know other than the few hallmark moments that i’ll be experiencing in my life (marriage and kids), i’ll never be as genuinely happy as I was when I was a child and that is a bummer.
