Gone

Everything is gone! My old laptop’s hard drive is corrupted, that’s what I am talking about. Most of the documents have copies in the cloud, but I just realized all the photos of my travel to the USA and Japan have not been backed up. Luckily all the Australian photos are saved in the cloud.

The Japan travel photos especially in Kanazawa are precious. I went there when I was just rising from a major setback in life. It was autumn, and all the beautiful leaves somehow signify my turbulent emotions. The USA trip happened when I was really conflicted with my life choices at the time. It was not a pleasure-purpose trip, but I’m glad I went. Otherwise, I don’t think I will ever go to USA.

Just like our immortal lives, nothing lasts. I guess it’s about time I really rack my memories and write everything while Allah still gives me the ability to remember. As you get older, you know how fragile this life could be.
