Instagram Polaroids

A Glimpse into the Past

These are random personal photos that I downloaded from my Instagram. They are very old and impossible for you to find on my feed due to the hundreds of poems published after them. I’m posting them here for safekeeping and reminiscing! The resolution might not be the best, but at least I have all the pictures, and the memory is what truly matters.

The Importance of Digital Keepsakes

In our digital age, it’s easy to overlook the sentimental value of our online memories. Photos captured on a whim, stories shared with friends, and moments immortalised in pixels form a significant part of our personal history. These Instagram Polaroids remind me of simpler times, cherished friendships, and milestones. They might not be high-definition, but they are high in emotional value.
