details

do you know the way you subconsciously associate little things and details with some people?

like every time you hear a certain song, you immediately remember the person who introduced you to it, used to play it all the time or who absolutely hated that song?

or the way you suddenly think of someone from years ago seemingly out of the blue, until you realise that the person who just passed by was wearing the same perfume?

it could really be anything from a place, dish, colour, movie, artist, brand of alcohol, day, whatever.

i've experienced a funny series of these trigger details bringing up someone from the past and then suddenly receiving a email/sms/phone call from them or bumping into them when least expecting it. really don't know what to think of it.

maybe it's part of this weird phase i've been going through lately. it seems to be forming into a process of figuring out my path forward by making sense of the past.
