>>33475660This made me very sad, seeing a piece of a world I never knew.
If I could turn back the clock to see the days when the Internet still felt fresh, when its history was short, I would take that chance.
Where has the time gone? In 2009, YouTube didn't have such a large amount of "old" videos, but now...
Just think that in a decade from now, everything we ever said will be a decade old, just a distant memory of what it actually was. Like the burnt shadows of people on the walls produced by the bombs at Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
Our desires for permanence and novelty seem to contradict each other.
This is why our hearts long so much for Eternity; because in Eternity, everything is just beginning, nothing gets old. Nothing is corrupt, nothing is destroyed, all is surviving, everything extant.
