Old Memories

I was trying to look for old photos from high school to share with my classmates. We've been organizing get-together sessions for the last couple of months and we are trying to gather old photos to share. And as I was doing that I found other old items instead. I found a box filled with old letters from old friends, old post cards and greeting cards, old notebooks, old textbooks, and old pieces of flowers. I was able to keep the rose my old friend gave me on Valentines Day. I placed it inside an old book, and let it dry there. My searching for old photos ended up finding old memories that I would rather kept hidden. I am not sure if this is something to be sad about. But seeing those old letters, cards and notes somehow brought a little bit of pain in my heart.
