SUNSHINE ON THE WATER


Making New Memories...




Sunday, June 10, 2007


It isn't easy making new memories that in some manner bring back old ones...

You find yourself in a new place and time...someone new to experience life's beauty with...yet you find the past creep upon you...the happy moments you used to have in the old places and times...with those who were most important to you then.

You have entered a world where some of the things you enjoyed most throughout your life lie right before you...You hold back the tears and pain you feel inside...telling yourself that it is okay to move forward and experience things you once enjoyed so much, with someone new.

You allow yourself to enjoy this new time and place...you both share some of your memories...bring something new into the experiences...and the next thing you know...while you weren't even paying attention...it happened...

Some things you have not enjoyed for so long have become fresh new memories...some of the pain has eased up...the tears not wanting to come so readily...you find yourself smiling from the inside out...

Because you are now thinking of that one day...the day the old merged with the new...
