A few years ago, when I was 15, my friends and I decided to skip a few classes and take a 6-hour camping trip. Once we got there, we set our tents and spent the day just talking, drinking and laughing a lot. It was fun.
Later that night, I woke up feeling a little bit dizzy, left my tent and decided to take a walk deeper into the woods. Not too far from where we were, I found another camp.
I decided to walk away as quickly as possible until I heard someone whisper "hey". I didn't want any trouble so I caught myself trying to justify being there, only to find out that person was just another teenager.
We got closer as I tried to apologize, saying I had no idea he was there. That dude physically reminded me a lot of Teddy Duchamp from the movie "Stand By Me". His name was Gabriel and he was 15 years old. His parents and little sister were inside that tent and they were there because his dad loved fishing/hunting or something like that. The point is, what I experienced after that was the best conversation of my entire life: we talked about our families, schools, girlfriends, friends, future and much more.
It was almost 5 AM when I told him I had to get back to my camp. I asked him to join my friends and I, as we were planning to go to the lake later that day and he told me he would try to convince his parents to let him go.
Leaving, he fist bumped me and joked we were oficially best friends. We both laughed.
I went back to my tent and passed out. When I woke up, I felt something was different. The sun. The trees. My friends.
We went to the lake around 3pm and had a great time. But he never got there.
Around 6 PM, I returned to that same spot to find out his family wasn't there anymore.
Today marks 6 years since I met him. I still don't know what I felt that day, but I know it was different. I don't believe in soulmates... but Idk. Even though I barely remember the sound of his voice, that changed me. This is the first time I share this story.
I've been thinking a lot about him lately. This song reminds me of that day. The feeling of that conversation, of that trip, of getting there and not finding him.
I hope you're happy, Gabe!
You were the best friend I could've ever had.

this song remind me of me and my friends in 7th grade, we would sneak out of the school just to walk in the peaceful woods about a kilometer away living the best life we could have. But now everythings gone. Highschool ruined my friendships, i barely meet my friends anymore, and when i meet them it is just like i never known them.
if you have read the whole text i just wanna say thank you :)

This song is basically when your laying down in a dark, cold room with the sounds of rain hitting your window, and the sound of your fan running while you think about everything you've done. Every regret, every memory of yours. So basically just when your lying down and your having deep thoughts about life. That feeling of nostalgia

This song gives me that "what have i done" vibe or "ive won..... now what?" Man life is good. To everyone out there who's feeling sad, just know that I love you, no matter who u are what type of person u are and where u are. If somethings on ur mind, do what u love. Camp, hike, just rest and take a deep breath and take a moment to chill. Think about the good things in life, the amazing things that can happen. The amazing future that awaits you. Its crazy how literally anything is possible. If you wanted to, you could really just do anything if ur committed. I hope this makes ur day I little bit better and have an utterly amazing life. God bless you and peace. We may meet again :)

When I read some of the comments here, I notice that most of the people commenting are either sad, depressed or nostalgic. And I totally understand that. This simple, yet special sound makes us feel in a way that can't be described in words.
I'm not one of those people that I mentioned before. I would say that I have a good life. I have a loving family, good grades and the best friends you could wish to have. I am still returning to this song, just to feel this special feeling again.
Every time I read the stories of the ones that commented here, and it breaks my heart to read all the suffering and pain that some of these people are going through. I am so grateful for the position that I'm in, and I wish that everybody on this planet could be in this position as well.
So if you are reading this, whether because you are happy, sad, nostalgic or anything else: I wish you all the best in your life. You deserve it.

this song reminds me of someone i was once close to in highschool, someone i only knew for a year.
his name was josh and he showed me another part of life i never experienced ever: living it up and partying. i was not a cool kid by any means and the cool kids did not accept me, but he did and he was one of them. i met him beginning of my junior year and we had lots in common: video games, music taste, ideologies on life, working out, and smoking weed (it was frowned upon)
he would throw these awesome house parties and everyone from our school would go. some of my best memories were from those house parties and having fun with everyone drinking and smoking weed with not a care in the world but my mom blowing up my phone. he showed me how fun life could really be and that you only live once so live it up.
i will never forget him calling me on a friday night to see if i wanted to go to one of those edm shows, we were both 17 at the time and were allowed to go because it was an all age event. we went to this club in nola called club ampersand (gone now) we saw krewella and adventure club. this was my first experience going to one of those shows, showing me another part of life i never experienced.
the end of that school year josh left for another state and we became distant. i tried to reach out, wanting to hang out in the future but he never really answered me back. last time i talked to him it was 4 years since he left. itâs now been 10 years and sometimes i wonder how he is doing.
josh, thank you for being a great friend for the time we did have together. thank you for including me in stuff i normally would have never been included in. i hope you are doing well..

Dear person whoever reads this,
Hey, you, yes, I am talking right to you. I hope you will see yourself with the eyes I see you one day, because I can tell you have some awesome music taste :) Youâre such a beautiful human being and worth and enough. I hope you know that you do only need yourself to be happy, I know society build up the standard that whenever youâre alone youâre not living a happy live. But in fact that is not true, if you start to realize that you actually deserve all the good things happening to you, you will treat yourself a lot nicer. I hope you let yourself rest, donât beat yourself up over past mistakes, over regret, and over everything your mind wants to destroy you. I wish I could remove all those demons inside of your head because you deserve to feel happy. If you ever feel lonely then watch the sky, because you know, someone, at the same time is watching the sky too, maybe feeling the same way..I am glad you exist and I hope you wonât ever remove your own spot in this world, maybe you donât feel like you belong here but, Angel, then build your home here. I donât want you to leave this world unhappy. I want you to live every little second, I want you to feel alive, I donât want you to see yourself just existing. You deserve it. Whatever happened, itâs not your fault, the demons in your head recognize that you have a beautiful heart, they want to take it because they have never seen such beautiful heart as yours, so why let them win over you? . Youâre not selfish for isolating yourself, but you deserve to talk to someone. If youâre reading this than please never forget to breath and smile.
Donât live up to other standards! Itâs your story and not theirs.
Life for those who couldnât, smile for those who forgot what a genuine smile is, love like thereâs no other, hug like its your last one.
I love you and send you hugs.
Youâre so strong, youâre still here, and I am proud of you.
YOU ARE NOT USELESS. READ THAT AGAIN.
YOU ARE WORTH IT. READ THAT AGAIN.
YOU ARE LOVED. READ THAT AGAIN.
I AM GLAD YOU EXIST. READ THAT AGAIN.
YOU ARE NOT A PROBLEM. YOU ARE HUMAN AND YOUR FEELINGS ARE VALID. READ THAT AGAIN.
YOU ARE NOT BEING DRAMATIC.
Youâre not a burden to anyone, donât be afraid to talk, to use your voice.
Youâre beautiful inside out. Your body is beautiful the way it is.
Please donât starve yourself. Please eat, I know itâs hard but you deserve food. You deserve to eat and drink.
I LOVE YOU SO MUCH. READ THAT AGAIN.
I WISH I COULD HUGH YOU RIGHT NOW, SO A VIRTUAL HUG WILL DO.
It hurts me to see youâre in pain :( you deserve so much man, donât let your emotions control you. Donât let them get the best of you.
I love u I love u I love u I love u I love u please donât go.
I am sorry that no one is hearing you, I am sorry no one is noticing that you have lost yourself. I wish I could take your pain away, it hurts me to see the pain in your eyes. I love you trough my words and I mean it. I just want you to stay, hold on a little longer okay? Please? For me.??
I hope you have an awesome day/ morning/ evening/ night.
If itâs night for you, go to sleep, I know itâs hard to fall asleep right now but you deserve a good sleep. If you have nightmares, please, donât let them fight you.
If itâs day for you, donât start it by such sad music, I know itâs impossible to have a good day with such mindset but take baby steps, start by drinking two cups of water in the morning and so on.. You will start building little healthy habits.
If itâs evening for you, youâre probably overwhelmed and stressed, I want you to know itâs okay to feel the way you feel. You donât need to be scared, of course youâre overwhelmed or stressed, I mean who wouldnât? But itâs important to know that when you feel that way you should do a little self care, such as taking a bath for example? You deserve to feel at ease and relaxed.
And if you are somewhere in between I hope you know that youâre stronger than you think, I know you will make it :)
Now wipe those tears away and smile for me, you really donât know much a smile can brighten someoneâs day, do you? I hope one day yours will become a genuine one where you donât need to fake it anymore, because I canât say this enough, you deserve a good smile and to feel alive. Youâre worth more than every fucking cent in this world.
Remember crying is not weakness, let it out as much as you can but donât let the emotion control you by giving up. Itâs okay, youâre here, youâre safe, you can let it out.
Did anyone asked you, how you are feeling today? If not, how are you really? I donât think youâre doing good, but you will feel good at one point. Donât give yourself up.
I am sorry you feel misunderstood.
But anyone who gets to be with you, doesnât know how fucking lucky he/ she/ they is :).
Enough with beating up yourself for today, okay?!
- The stranger that cares about you more than anything.
I hope this is enough for you to stay today, tomorrow will be a new day, a new start, let go now. I hope you can stay.
This is your sign to stay and treat yourself with love, you deserve it.
And in case no one told you today, again, I am so proud of you.
I hope you will remember my words :)
Until tomorrow, my friend :)
Edit: im really proud of you for findng your happiness here, i also ove you so much even if i dont know you , i still care for you an your feelings. until next time bestie <3
