Memories

Reminds me of Grammy's houseThe world that mattered most to us as a child doesn’t even exist today.  Things change. Things get lost, stolen, they burn in fires, we lose them in floods and storms, but what we have is memories, memories of how things were, to us.  We remember the past as we experienced it, colored with the love or hate for our families, the sadness of those we have lost, the joy of those we had and still have in our lives that we love.

The further we get away from these experiences, the more import the memory of them is to us. We not only have to hold onto those memories, but as we get older and understand this point, we should work hard to create new, positive ones, both for ourselves, and for those around us.  We should cherish those moments that we have with our loved ones, cherish those moments we remember.  Write them down, take pictures, keep them close to our hearts.  There’s enough to do, the lists of those things that others want us to do will always be there, it’s important to take some time, and get some things right.

The clock is ticking.  It’s a reminder that we can hear, that time is ticking away, moving on.  We’re getting older, time is going by.  Are we making the most of it, or just letting it pass us by?

The expectations of the world are changing.  The world as we know it now, it will not be the  world of the future.  Things will change.  Change is coming, it always has, and it always will.  The first radios allowed people to connect with each other all around the world.  We’re not so much building radios anymore.

Stay curious, and live with passion.
