So for personal reasons I was motivated to do some soul searching & in the absence of a Diary or any form of physical documentation[footnote]Most burned in a fire & what little of it remained is at my parents house, which is in another city, so not exactly an easy trip to make.[/footnote] I decided through look through everything in the Internet that I still had access to, after days of research I've found this to be an interesting exercise, despite not finding what I was looking for & feeling extremely embarrassed at how huge of an edgelord I was I have found the journey to be worthwhile, not only was it fun to laugh at myself for all the dumb things I used to say & laugh at the stupid parts of me that haven't but it was also an unexpectedly melancholic read, reading all those old conversations with friends whose identities have been lost to time & that I will probably never speak to again was really saddening.
I would elaborate but hindsight is 20/20, however the most valuable thing that I learned is that all those people I spoke with online were real friends & they genuinely helped me through hardships & for that I thank them even if they will never read this.
But anyway, let's extend the question to you.
Do you ever go back & loot at your old posts & if so what do you feel about them?
