I was clearing out my inbox, well actually trying to find a copy of my old CV to compare it to my new one, and as i was searching through, i found some old emails.
I found the first ever e mail my boyfriend sent me. When i was reading it back, i remembered the events in the email like it was yesterday. It was about 2 and a half years ago, but i remember stuff like our first date and how he (kinda) asked me out, and how we had zero privacy in the first few days of going out, as we were surrounded by lots of people (long story). The past 2 and a half years have been the best, and i hope for lots more years with him teasing me about eating a proper breakfast, and not just having crumbs from the taoster (i do have a proper breakfast, by the way).
I also read some emails when my best friend moved away. At the time, it felt like i would never see her again, and that she woukd no longer be my friend, because i didn't see her everyday. That was a pretty childish view of it. We email each other all the time (about 3 times a week), we follow each other on twitter, and the fact we don't see each other every day has actually strengthened our friendship.
And yesterday, i put away last years diary with the year before's. I was actually looking at my 2010 diary, and realized just how far i have come, personal development wise, in that time.
Sometimes it's nice just to look back on your life, and remember the good times, and try to find some humour in the bad times. You can't change the past, but you can learn from it, and change the way you look at it.
