a quick musing...

memories
rushing through 
filled with scenes that speed by like a freight train
stop... slow it down
let's take another look
relishing those that brought joy and healing and peace and ... rewind... show that one again.... and again.
and that one?
looking hesitatingly through squinted eyes
dare I?
maybe just for a moment
ok, enough.
 
what is life but an accumulation of memories
and lessons learned
growing one on top of another
we turn our heads to look back and see
What?  did that really happen?
it did, it was LIVED yet feels like a dream
 
the dream continues and we add to it day by day
more memories to be made
all adding up to
a life

  1. I enjoyed this as well. Have you considered putting together a little book of pages like this and your other writings? It would be a wonderful book to look through time and again. You seem to break down such complex, relatable experiences into beautiful expressions.

    I'm sorry if this comes off as overly articulated, haha! I'm in the last prep day of finals, very caffeinated, and currently live in the library.
