There are xem phim tam ly vi?t namtimes when I look at a photo and think, "Huh, that one's actually not bad...I'm gonna post it."
Then I'll see that photo a few weeks or months down the line and say to myself, "This is terrible. WHY did I post this?"
So I move to delete it, but right before I hit that button, I think, "...what if I miraculously end up liking this again later on? What if, some day, I stop caring that this photo is terrible and wish I had posted it anyway because it has sentimental value.
