Diego's piece is not only visually inviting but also a reminder that we all need to pause each day, take in our surroundings, and appreciate the beauty in that.
Thank you, Vanessa. This wouldn’t be what it is without your guidance and feedback. You helped polish this piece, and it was a delight to work with you on it!
Thank you for this Diego. I can really relate. The further we get into technology, the more I appreciate the simplicity of life from when I was younger. I miss the anticipation of having to wait for things.
Beautifully said. Anticipation Is probably the feeling I remember most vividly from childhood. It was so frequent and so thrilling. Thanks for reminding me.
The instant gratification of so many things now doesn’t really serve us in the long run. I miss waiting for a music video to drop, waiting months for an album, standing in line at a record store for an autograph. The feeling of, “OMG, I can’t wait until…” it made the good things special, it would just take a few decades for us to realize it.
Cate, you are speaking my language! I can remember heading downtown to Crazy Eddies or Tower Records where everybody knew they could get the latest music whenever something was about to drop and feeling so elated that I got there first! We literally would dance in the store aisles, hahahah!
Yes!!! And, to get your hands on that new thing was almost a literal physical relief. I’d stress until it was in my hands and then I was euphoric. I have 3 daughters now, my youngest is 21 and they just don’t understand how much they’ve missed out on. These moments became core memories for me.
Diego, thank you so much for sharing your thoughts, emotions and parts of your life through this post. I can admit it made my eyes watery! You are very loved. The beacons you have found in your life are mirroring what you have inside you and how important you are to us as well. 💌 I truly love sharing life with you.

Same. My daughter is also 21, my son is 24, and all they know is how to swipe, text, and stream. It's tragic.
It is. I guess maybe it’s good that they don’t understand that. They don’t realize what they are missing.
100% anticipation makes everything feel more special. Thank you for your words Cate, you’ve highlighted something that really resonated with me.
It really does!
