What are some good memories of yours?

[Aliaiactaest]

I have many good memories as well, too many to mention. Then again, I'm older, so I have had more time to do things and to accumulate good memories.

@Walilamdzi what is a good memory of yours, friend?

I have a memory of being on a bus journey home with a friend (with whom I'm no longer in contact), after a really blissful day together exploring Oslo, it was so nice just being together and looking out of the window at the scenery flying by and sharing earphones to her playlist. That was one of the best days of my life and I really miss her!

my fav memory about a absolute stranger is the following

I was about 21 or 22 living in Sydney, Australia. it was a very wet and windy day and i was running to get to my bus, to get to work. my umbrella inverted and then snapped due to the wind on route to the bus station, so i was getting soaked. a young man saw me getting soaked on the way to the bus station and offered to share his umbrella with me. we ended up on the same bus together heading into the city, he offered me a towel from his gym bag for me to dry myself and we spoke for the length of our journey. I never saw him again on that bus and have no idea on his name. but that instant offer of help. always bring a smile to my face when i think about it. it was so genuine.

there are a few truly nice people out there.... maybe a few hundred out of the billions of people :-) :-)

When I was younger and everything was okay, I used to twirl my hair with my finger and lay on the couch and ask my mom to bring me my cold bottle of milk. The sunlight would filter in through the window and didnt bother my eyes yet like it does now. I only knew one channel on the remote. It was cartoon network. I cant remember anything so pure without worry. Just thinking about it now makes my heart start beating fast.

I miss the memory of being emotionally alive and returning home after a day of being physically and spiritually worn in a happy way. Like when you were a kid and you came back home after school, after playing with your friends, and running and jumping, and you had dried sweat mixed with dust and grass in your skin, and you had supper , a shower with soap all over your skin and the water getting darker at the bottom of the bathtub, and went to bed. That smell and the feeling of your dirty and dried-after-being-sweaty kids hair sticked to your temples and the sides of your head.

That's so beautiful its almost made me cry. There was beauty in my life as a child and teenager, nothing for a decade now and missing those things that make you feel alive hurts. But thank you x

I have only a few good memories and most of them makes me sad because I won't have it again, but there is one that kinda changed my life, I was on a family trip at a beach house and at night I just put a chair in the sand, sat there looking at the dark sky while listening music all alone, it was the first time I felt I was in peace.

Playing/watching super smash bros with my siblings on the nintendo 64. Really miss those days.

Many, many good memories, as like some of us i have been alive long enough to experience the best and the worst, though saying that some of the best memories i have of fun & laughter happened during what should have been the worst times.

Ive been to Iceland, seen the northern lights, got taken on a crazy 4x4 trip across pumice stone & god knows what else, past stinky geysers to a bloody great whole in the ground otherwise know as the Continental Gap, that nice crack through Iceland where the north american plate is parting company with the european one, thats one deep hole..

Life might be very shit now, but at least i know i had fun & caused a fair amount of chaos when i was young & fit enough.

Cheers Op

my happiest memories:
Sitting in bed watching movies with my bf
Making silly faces and taking weird selfies in the college library with an old friend from college
Video chatting with an online best friend (he later committed suicide)

I dated a woman once who had 2 little kids. We had so much fun together. It fell apart because of my sexual issues cuz of what happened when I was young.

I also had another really fun quasi-relationship, more like a female best friend, while I worked in special ed, those 2 years were amazing. Again, ended because of the sex part when she started to have feelings.

I ultimately wouldn't change the outcome. Both went on to find guys who were probably normal in that area and financially sound, altho one was just a trust fund baby that had never worked and I don't think was ever planning to. They deserved to have a guys who were financially sound.

I just never understood that part till now. Life was so simple and fun when I was a special ed assistant, I got to help kids during the day, worked a 2nd job sometimes because the pay was low, played sports with spare time and hung out with my friends.

I just never got it, never grew up. And it cost me everything in my present and future.

A vacation home, rented for a week in a secluded wooded area with it's own private section of beach. It was bliss. The sunset over the water was beautiful, the home felt so peaceful, we went and biked around for a day, visited some lighthouses, went out to eat (always loved a good restaurant). I felt normal and happy.

Not even the ritual vacation argument my parents went through ruined it, I didn't get dragged in this time

I want to ctb after typing that. One week. I understand it was a holiday but coming back to reality after recalling that time is... jarring. It almost felt like we were a family.

I have other happy memories, majority of them involving my younger brother and doing what I love alone. The past is poisoned by the emotion I feel for it, but not all was bad. Just most, haha.
