Days

Days come days go, what's left are mere traces of time we store and call memories. Funny though, these memories tend to fade as more days come and go, and more traces of time are stored. Each day passes and we have more and more memories, till someday old memories become no memory at all. Hopefully a friend, or love one can recall it, but there are rare instance when even they have lost touch with that place in time. And now what once was is no longer. Be it old "friend" or blanket, favorite t-shirt,once forgotten they all become the same. Interesting how life works....Time and memories and gentle balance of opposites much like relationships. Fragile in it's demanor, but everlasting in its appearance. Every now and then you get a spark of thought, a memory will return. A word, or song, or an action of something will take you instantly back to " You remember that time when..." or " Man I remember back in high school..." But soon again time will pass, and memories will store, and the cycle will continue. So it explains the sayings "Carpe Diem", and "You only live once!" Cherish the time as it passes, rejoice in the mercy that it truly is. And hopefully one day....we'll all meet again and spark new memories to store in a place where the cycle began.....
