Modern Time Capsule


I found the iPod touch at the bottom of my drawer and maybe I could put it into good use...

As I charge up the old gadget, the old familiar iOS look up at me. This was the piece of metal that helped me through the darkest days of my life. Whenever I was feeling sad and depressed I would listen to songs that block out my frustrations. I would spend my time playing the mini games on to make me forget my worries. I would type my feelings into the Notes where it would absorb and make my troubles disappear. I would store our pictures into the photo albums and sneak a peak when faces become burry. I would put my hopes into the small square with the blue "S" that could connect us...

These were the memories that I have forgotten, stored safe and sound in the little 4 inch rectangle.

I look at these bittersweet memories and thought of all the difficult nights that I went through, all the happiness and sadness...

That was the me years ago, and the you who still loved me then - lock and preserved in the 8GB of memory.
