One always returns to the old places where one loved life

One always returns to the old places where one loved life. However, in the song “City Fish” by Joaquín Sabina you hear this phrase: “You should not try to return to the place where you have been happy.” So where do we set our compass?

Sabina is right, Maybe when you return to those places that have marked your life you will no longer be able to see them the same again., you will walk through them with an open gaze, without a blinder of infatuation and absolute vital plenitude. You will see the buildings as they are, structures made of various materials that welcome locals and tourists, but they no longer seem like actors purposely placed in your path co-starring in your same story.

Its smells will no longer seem like accomplices to the light that houses your feelings. They will not be accomplices every time you walk through the most beautiful season in life that you will have to go through, but also leave, because it seems that everything is much more beautiful when it has an end.

In person or in imagination, but one always comes back

There are stories that have a specific path in your life and it is the right and necessary one. If you insist on them lasting longer, they will stop sheltering you in the nights of icy lamentations and anguish, because their mantle of sweetness is sustained at the end with open mysteries. Sometimes you have to keep chimeras of love like a treasure, because that feeling that was never completely at the time, will be authentic throughout your life because it is unfinished.

One always returns to the old places where one loved life, one even returns to those places in imagination. By biting back tears at any unexpected memory. You always come back when you want to be in love again, to feel what it feels like again. You always come back to get excited about something, to show that you might be able to do it.

One always comes back to regret

A person returns to the old places where they loved life sometimes only to regret having missed their opportunity.. He returns sadly and regretfully. But with more passion than ever, because, despite everything, the flame remains lit.

He returns to regret not having been brave because of fears and insecurities and, nevertheless, having been brave when what gained was not happiness, but comfort. Those types of certainties only happen once in a lifetime.

One always comes back to show loyalty

One always returns to that place to tell him that no one else managed to make him feel the same. With very similar people, sensations and events, but the way in which they reached his heart was never the same. Sometimes we need to compress our entire existence into a short time.

That free, anarchic, unpredictable, rebellious and passionate way of acting is a gift that you gave to that place because you loved it for the way it made you feel. It’s not a relationship where someone loses: they both picked up each other’s magic to shine brighter. That place shines brighter after knowing that you have remained faithful to it.. It is a secret between the two that does not imprison you, it makes you free.

One returns to the place where he loved life to be brave

One always returns to the old places where one loved life to be brave and to heal wounds knowing that others that you already considered healed can bleed again. One returns to those places because a moment of plenitude there is worth thousands that happen anywhere and because the days are not happy, the days have meaning and therefore are of confirmed happiness.

One becomes brave again because he is aware that one day he could avoid living life in that place he loved, but he is not willing to leave it without thanking it again, feeling it… trying…
