Do you have a soundtrack of your life? You know, songs that play in your mind at certain times or memories that are deeply associated with particular music? Maybe it’s only me…
I recently visited a place that I used to frequent a number of years ago, and there I saw some people who I now see only periodically. Both the place and the people are still a part of my life, but not my everyday life. What a delight to return to a place that feels like home and to rekindle friendships from a previous time!
I found that my spending the weekend there not only evoked a case of nostalgia, but it also activated my soundtrack: The Beatles' song "In My Life" has been popping into my head during these past few weeks, as I reflect on my affection for people and things that went before.
