Anemoia is the for the definition above. I feel it often, have you ever felt the same when you look at old style photos, listening to old music, or watching old movies?

It feels like you’ve lived through those periods of time, even though you know that it is physically is impossible. Allegedly, our brains do not recall when we think to past events but is instead creating simulations of what happened.

I’ve always felt a sense of yearning, to live within “simpler times” but is it just my mind creating a rose-tinted version of the past? I believe so, in reality it would not be this perfect world as I see in my mind. It would simply be a different reality with the same problems we face now.

However, I’d like to use these rose-tinted visions to help, motivate me to create the ideal world I’d like to live in. A place where everyone can feel comfortable being who they are, where people are free, and a place where love can be felt by all.

Holy cornball, thanks for reading kare’s occasional thoughts :>.
