Turned back to the memories

Reminiscing can sometimes evoke smiles, tears, and complex emotions. They are evidence of how much we have grown and changed. The past doesn't change; it's always the present me that changes. I thought of compiling the many scattered memories into an album, hoping to look back on them someday. In this way, we spend today differently from yesterday and move forward.

Suddenly, I remember a poem by Kotaro Takamura: 'There is no path before me, a path is made behind me.'

The path to the future might be within the memories.

Share your creations with #memories

It's okay to have days when memories hold you back from moving forward. On such nights, let's toast with a beer in hand and create fun memories again from tomorrow. Here’s some inspiration for posting with #memories.

'Memories recalled by looking at vacant lots'

Memories of after school recalled by looking at vacant lots. Now, I can't go back. Sometimes, when passing through vacant lots or parks without people, I hear innocent laughter. Whether it's reality or an illusion, I can't tell if it's just the memories of those days resurfacing.

'Hometown: Home' A hometown is not always a comfortable place. Some may have sought freedom from what tied them down and ventured into the outside world. Yet, there are times when you unexpectedly return to your hometown.

The yellow leaves sway in the wind, coloring the ground. The scenery shines so beautifully that it even dyes the color of the two's love, remaining vividly in memory.
