Leave the bathroom light on
Life has a weird way of interweaving the good and bad things. Never in way that superseded but more in a way that make things cumbersome. I think this often distracts us from the important things, things we often take from granted. It's funny that a book quote, a song lyric, a melody, or even just a case of deja vu can open our eyes to what was always in front of us. The goodbyes that went by too quickly. The things we let go so easily. The dogs or just pets we put to rest. The family and friends we had to let go due to time, distance, and death. We are unfortunately cursed to move in one direction, forward and onward. We learn to lose things, and forget things, but damn do we feel things. These things that are always on our mind should be expressed. A harder I love you, a smile, a doggy treat, or even just road trips with amazing views. Experience it all together. Experience life, and never take any of it for granted. Just to remember that there was a reason we left the bathroom light on. For all we have at the end of the day is our memories.
