What It’s Like To Go Back To Your High School « Thought Catalog
Perhaps the problem is not that things don’t feel new anymore. Perhaps the problem is that I need things to feel fresh in order for them to feel valuable. Like a 60-year-old man in a shiny red convertible, I’ve equated newness with importance. I read once that things can change, but only with abandonment. I do not think I’ll ever go back to my high school. I cannot imagine why I would ever need to do that again. Yes, it was the land I grew up on. But now it’s a burning field.
