Do You Ever Look Back....

On conversations here (that is of course if you have access to old ones) in your PM'S and think, wow that was interesting conversation! I miss those chats! I was looking at one just now from 5 years ago and it was really good. I have no idea if he is still here or perhaps under another nickname. I don't even know why the conversation ended. Likely someone became more interesting than me. It was genuine conversation with a good back and forth flow. I don't know if those kind even happen here anymore, or if this place has taken on a more Instagram style communication. I think I'm to old school. I go way back to the early 2000's where the internet had opened the world up and there seemed to be so many more people willing to really engage with you. A couple of those people I'm still in contact with today.
That's it, my random thought for the day.

Life happens.
I used to be on here quite a bit several years back. But what E.P. was, and S.W was in its earlier days has changed. It used to be a place where you could genuinely share experiences, and connect with others that had similar stories. It became too political, and there are other social aspects that became a bit too sophmoric for my liking. So i faded away from here, popping back on sporadically and find I am behind the learning curve with the site changes.
All my old conversations are gone sadly, but i do have pleasant memories of good chats with some good people of which you are included.

@OverTheHill Yes I can agree with your sentiments. And thank you. I'm not sure when we spoke unless it was a long time ago. Or a different nickname?:)
