There's no going back from what happened. You can go back and understand the past, but you can't go back and change it.

Friends, I was pretty sure, lift their friends up; they don't weigh them down like a sack full of stones

I think about how we can't always live in the moment because moments pass, and when we're lucky, we have the kind of moments that we can't help wanting to go back to. We think about them, remember how they felt, and when more time passes we tell stories of these moments that are worth reliving.
