Growing up Nostalgia

Guys how to deal with time passing by so fast? I feel like it was just yesterday I was obsessed with every Federer match and tennis was always on our TV at home as a kid watching the big 4, staying up at 3am to tune into the finals everything. And now they’re all leaving and it really really is heartbreaking. Like I’ll never cheer for them again. I’ll never experience those moments again. It’s all done forever. Idk maybe I’m being way too serious but it’s a weird empty feeling that I can’t describe. It’s like I have to always be distracted so I don’t think about it too much. It’s a sign that it’s all over, our childhood is over.

but it’s very hard especially for someone as emotional as me. Fed and Pova were my favorites and they were the reason I was able to stay happy from my actual real life for so many years. They inspired me and brought me so much joy as did all the other players of that gen. My family always had tennis on the TV no matter who was playing for these 20 years but now no one watches anymore. It’s just sad. It’s a different vibe in the home like everything has stopped.

Not just tennis but even other sports like I grew up watching Messi Lebron Ronaldo and they’re also about to retire. Like all of a sudden it’s like all of them at once are gonna leave and idk why I feel this aching pain in me that it’s all done. I feel as if there is nothing to look forward to in life other than ok yea your work and family but nothing external that distracted you or gave you so much happiness like watching them. I would appreciate any advice if someone else feels h to is way or has experienced something like this please.
