You want the truth? ..Well, here it is... <br />Read more quotes here - https://www.myquotesgallery.com/ <br /> <br />You want the truth? <br />Well, here it is. <br />Eventually, you forget it all. <br />First, you forget everything you learned; <br />the dates of wars and Pythagorean theorem. <br />You especially forget everything you didn’t really learn, <br />but just memorized the night before. <br />You forget the names of all but one or two of your favorite teachers; <br />and eventually you forget those, too. <br />You forget your junior year class schedule and where you used to sit, <br />and your best friend’s home phone number <br />and the lyrics to that song you must have played a million times. <br />And eventually, but slowly, you forget your humiliations - <br />even the ones that seemed indelible just fade away. <br />You forget who was cool and who was not, <br />who was pretty, smart, athletic, and not. <br />Who went to a good college, <br />who threw the best parties, <br />who had the most friends - <br />you forget all of them. <br />Even the ones you said you loved, <br />and the ones you actually did. <br />They’re the last to go. <br />And once you’ve forgotten enough, <br />you love someone else. <br />You replace the old friends with new ones. <br />You replace the old knowledge with new knowledge. <br />You replace what was with what is. <br />And one day you’ll look back at this time in your life <br />and wonder why you were so miserable. <br />You’ll ask yourself why you let certain things get to you, <br />why you let people get to you. <br />You won’t even be able to name the people whose opinions currently mean everything. <br />The truth is that everyone forgets, <br />and everyone is forgotten, <br />everyone replaces and <br />everyone is replaced. <br />It’s unavoidable.
