The (Other) Tale of Robert in Mt. Ternff Park


Music defines our personality but sometimes it defines our generation.

And we all get old and the music that we grew up with gets old with us as well, making us nostalgic every time we hear them. And we get more emotional when those musicians that we grew up with gets a come back concert.
Hearts are overwhelmed.

I grew up listening to their music. That time of my life when peer pressure was high and self awareness was low and self confidence was hanging in between the balances of highschool life.

Back when your sole responsibility was yourself, your grades, your time.
Back when life was just about music.
Back when everything was just about music.

And then it goes fast forward to the present reality.
Now we have our own kids.
Almost all of our friends are married, some are divorced, and a few remains free from commitment but not with responsibilities.

Now we work not only for ourselves but for our families, for the future of our kids.

And whatever dreams we had when we were young were just a distant poignant highschool frustrations that we learn to accept as we grow old and get stuck with our day to day lives and jobs that feeds the mind of how sweet dreams were and how bitter reality is.

And I will never forget how you influenced my views in life, how I've learned to face battles on my own because of the music that you have shared with me. Growing up with you was amazing. And yes, time can never erase those memories that we had. And even though we had our own lives now, I will always consider you as "THE MOST INCREDIBLY POSITIVE INFLUENCE IN MY LIFE" .
