Relationship

What does the past mean to you? If it does not affect your future, would it still matter for you? Yesterday, I tried to migrate all my data from my old to my new phone. Somehow, I couldn't synchronize WhatsApp with the back up so what I got from the app was a list of group that I joined with no personal chat at all. It freaked me out for a bit. I managed to sync all the contacts though, so that was a huge relief but I lost all the chats. I did the same thing with my email where I deleted all the sent items, which somehow deleted the correspondence that attached to the sent items as well. I was quite devastated back then since I have some letters that were super sweet in the email. The same goes for my WhatsApp chat!! But probably because this was the second time I experienced it, I became more accepting?! 

Anyhow, it was quite an interesting experience to download many apps in one night. During the years, I have downloaded many apps individually. I did not realize that I was apps dependent. At least to be able to enter public places, I need lens for QR code and then music, comic, financial services, fitbit and others. This fresh start also allowed me to detach with apps that I don't need. Reflecting on what I consider as important and what is not. 

It also makes me think about relationship. I think what made me accept the lost of my emails were the fact that people's relationship is a work. You will create new stories with the people who are close to you. Their names will start popping out again in your chat. And if it is not, then they are just not important anymore. Not because of hate but because you don't find the need to contact them again and vice versa. Being a gypsy, I experience this a lot. People start to fade away in the distance.
