Sometimes I get nervous, when I see an open door.
Wave goodbye, wish me well, you’ve gotta cut the cord.
Once upon a time nothing was permanent. We did things, and they faded, in a few weeks, or months if they were especially memorable. Now, things come faster and fade faster. With the 24 hour news cycle we see things so fast and they’re gone before we’ve even really realized what happened.
At the same time, on a personal level, nothing ever leaves. Thanks to the internet, life is written in stone. Take this blog, for instance. If we delete it after this class, it wont really be gone. It’ll be hard to find, sure, but it’ll still be saved in a thousand different caches. You’ll never escape your past.
