A Window to the Past.
Unvisited Leftovers / June 06 / Montréal, Qc / Canon Eos Digital Rebel XTiAnytime you have a moment, you go looking for a past moment from your lifeline, and project it into your present; into that moment you were having.
Or had actually, since you are constantly living in your past.
It’s a bitch isn’t it?
I always thought that it was a blessing… no it isn’t.
Believe me, looks are deceiving.
I was deceived. I deceived myself. Don’t worry, I am so good with that. I am used to lie to myself. I am used to trick myself into believing, that everything I do, is what is supposed to happen.
Without prior notice, and just when you thought that the image memory summoned is pleasant, safe, and smile-drawing, a virus parasite thought interrupts your process recollection, and your lovely window to the past turns into a film noir.
Thrilling and interesting to go through for sure, but that wasn’t the ride you paid for.
You got fooled again. You got fooled by your own creation, and by your own being.
Here’s to memories… We live for them, from them, and through them.
Here’s to two years of urban_memories [the unfinished polaroids].
It’s been a thrill.

To memories! Cheers! They're in the past yes, but they made us who we are today!! So yalla, make more memories :)
It's been two years already? Wow, time does fly. And I guess my own two-year celebration is just around the corner...
Happy two year-versary to you!
كان بدي قلك شي ونسيت
شو رأيك أنت كمان تنسى شوي؟
Uffff.... your post made me look back at my first post ever on my blog... it was on April 8, 2005.
So I guess I'm a coupla weeks overdue for celebrating my 3 years along with your 2 :)
Happy blogging to us all!
mine is coming up in july (i think) its pretty intense - i have written close to everyday..
wow! it's been two years.. mine was born right after a very emotional time in my life. it pains me to know it's been so long since that event and i'm not over it yet.. anyway, great two years my friend. memories are becoming quite the burden for me too but i still enjoy the secret pain.
keep'em coming

reading this post made me think so much of myself and how I too lie to myself. I think you know by now that I am very terrified of looking at the past. I'm not good with it.
keep the posts coming! I love this space and I love what you have to say, whether I agree to it or not. There's lots of substance ;)
and to think that i only discovered this blog half a year ish ago! happy 2 years!
You're one piece of work, man! Your blog is stuffed with emotions!
the truth is, outer and "inner" structures need the same intensity of maintenance after conception. It is hard work either way.
