Living Memories

by Joshua   Jul 3, 2008


Memories are the treasures that all of us keep with us and we make more as we go along why are these so important to us and how can the help us do anything or do they just sit there and fold over one another like wave splashing over again and again merging other memories. blending fragmenting changing some... even forgotten.

The mind has a land scape but to describe it takes something that is to hard to comprehend but weather or not we comprehend it the attempt must be made. When a memory is creating its like a fresh blade of grass on an open field its new bright and green and glistening making a difference on a once barren landscape then one by one more blades grow and before long the plane is filled to the brim with grass, flowers , plants anything that can be imagined is there but in that same time of so many memories that first one is withering away changing from a once sparkling green to a dull brown even then still clinging to that field and its home desperately wanting to stay a little longer but as more time passes it weakens and dies. that is a forgotten memories . Now a memory that is dieing can be saved and does not have to fade away if you can think back enough and find it then the blade of grass will re-bloom and the water and sunlight of your thoughts reach it. Though all this is pleasant to think of it like such but we still have other memories to think about the ones that brought pain that cannot be forgotten are like a pond in the middle of the field it leaves an open gap where no other memories of that time can grow and it leaves a sense of emptiness those memories are the broken ones that leave fragmented thoughts and deep wounds in the heart. alas there is yet more all memories don't have to be painful others can be joyous those are flowers and must always be cherished and cared for not to be forgotten they are fragile and precious small but together they cover all the field with bright colors. You must always remember that that field is in your mind and in turn a part of your personality lives in that field what is placed in that field will will affect you personality greatly if it is filled with thorns lakes and dieing grass you will feel bitter inside and be a bitter person but if you are making the best of all the memories you hold dear and fill that field with bright green beautiful flowers then you will see the differences in who you are and so will everyone around you.

So please I implore you take care of those precious memories and whatever you do....

Don't Forget.
