One of these things is my past. You can not be who you want to be if your eyes keep searching for the past. I do not know about your past but mine is so sweet and so vintage. It is so packed with emotions, memories, wins, struggles, people, love and all the other colors of the palette. 

These two days my past would silently approach and whisper things into my ears. Streets, boulevard, food, noise and nature became the symphony that became irresistible. 

These two days was about me hugging my past a goodbye. I know that after my last book “Sözün İzində” – Chaising The Words, I put my past behind. It is collection of my most beloved memories, moments and reflections. It is 10 years of writing and thinking about stories, characters. It is a blend of memoir and short story collection. 

Yesterday, I noticed the cashier reading this book. She was so involved in it. I could not help but stare at her for a while. She was reading about my life and my moments. On the other hands she was discovering her own moments and her own past through the text. She will find herself in some of those pages. She will have some deep conversations with me (accusing or understanding my choises.) 

Writing is so romantic. Yes, it loses to modern day society which chases different values. But, it still resonates with the very few who are sensitive. 

I think the first 10 days of the challenge is my way of restructuring the mind for the new phase and new load of memories to be made.
