Reminiscence in the street

in #culture7 years ago

There were old book and old LP store in the alley.
I encountered them in the alley.
As soon as I saw the stores, they push me in reminiscence to my high school years. I loved to read books. But it was not easy to buy books. We were poor and the library was far from me.

When I had collected pocket money, I ran into the old book store. At that time there was a old book store street. I had spent whole weekend.
Now the old book store street was disappeared. There are so many libraries near my village.
But I remember my pure pleasure from reading books. When I was young, I had read books for my spiritual pleasure. Now I have read books for getting information for my job.
At the Old Book Store, I remembered the pure pleasure of my high school years.

I could buy several books with the money to buy a new book.

Besides of the old book store, There was a LP store.
I love music. I am listening music with CD and MP files, mostly MP files.
LPs made me think my college ages.
There was a my friend who had clear soul. We had met very often in our college times. The best thing I remember with him was music. We had heard “Honesty” of Billy Joel. Of course, I got to recognize that the honesty was such a lonely road.
Now I think I understand why he sang the Honesty. We with my friend had listened music and followed to sing in a small back room.
Now time splitted us. After graduation from the college, we went to our ways to live. Sometimes I missed him and the time we spent together.

one old gentleman was looking at LPs
May be he was hunting his old memories

Thank you to read, Steemians !

Today you have a special day. But do not remember what a holiday is today, because there is no significant day for you today. Just you will have a cool day, saturated with pleasant emotions, for joyous moments. I'm sure that you'll be all in high spirits today, because in the morning you got such a positive charge. I want you to start every day with good emotions, because they play a significant role in our lives. I really want you to never be sad that you do not tune in to negativity. You should wake up in the morning with a smile, with a good mood. Your thoughts must be positive, then everything will be cool. It is important for me that you know how to enjoy trifles. Agree that life will become much more interesting and brighter. Do not be afraid of positive emotions, do not be afraid to be happy.

Thank you so much

Lots in here as well. We have this place in Philippines and they called it Moray-Rector Street. Books are sold along the avenue of the said streets. If are you looking for some hard to find books, just go there and for sure you can find and buy one at a cheaper price. Great and Thanks for sharing :)

고등학교때 중고 참고서 사러가곤 처음 이네요

저도 오랜만에 갔습니다

Oh my god. I love old book so much! Or I should say I love physical book so much. I love to visit those old book store in Hong Kong also. But sad that it becoming less and less because of the high rental fee in Hong Kong. And what's more difficult in Hong Kong is every one live in a small flat and don't really have place to store the book..sigh

It is as same as in korea.
