8 years ago...

We were in secondary school, only 15 years old. On different occasions, we went to the beach together. Sometimes, we stayed back in the beach together after school events. We only had the two of us. I only had you and you only had me. The only things that accompanied us were the sand, the sea and the skies. But we had so much, so much fun together. We spent all the time together frolicking under the skies, in the sea amongst the sand. And it was so much fun. We had no money then. No commitments. No rental to pay, no bookings to fulfill. 

And we were so happy. 

Now we have a functioning business, we have sufficient money to spend... But we have no time for the beach anymore. We have no time to enjoy the sun, the skies, the sea and the sand anymore. We also have no time for fun anymore. 

When we are at the beach, we don't spend time frolicking in the water anymore. Instead, we peacefully stare at the sea. 

I have so much to say but so little words that can explain these feelings. 

But I think 8 years ago, we were happier.
