This is going to sound really strange and I'm not sure I will be able to explain myself very well, if at all. But I'm watching an old episode of Murder She Wrote and I just feel like this sort of painful happiness. It's so simple and comforting and nostalgic that it's almost a bit painful and melancholy if you understand what I mean.
I don't just mean the programme but there's something about that time and memories and just wanting things to be more...simple.
And I've been thinking I want to recreate this feeling I get from watching it but also the life that I associate with it - so I guess a less complicated, less superficial, commercial type of living? i just desperately miss that feeling of being younger and I wonder what I can do to get more of it in my life - just a simple joy in everyday life. I'm even looking at how everyone looks and dresses in it.
I think probably the big thing I could do is get off social media more, I don't spend much time reading the news so that's great, but I definitely spend far too much time online and I think that would help but does anyone else have any other idea - or even know what I mean and have you felt the same and managed to successfully do anything about it?
