How many sentimental journeys do we take in a
Lifetime?
Year?
Day?
Hour?
The seduction of the memory cannot be resisted.
Heartbreak or fulfillment each beg you with equal vigor.
Are we running from our future or to our past?
The present is unable to offer the nostalgia we crave.
As long as you understand it’s not the memory it’s too far gone now.
Now we are in love with the sentiment.
A foundation of strength prevents a weak house.
A voice, a pillar, a moment of time all shared through the power of a story.
Just one lifetime.
Left behind we will revel and climb to higher places. We didn’t have to start from the bottom.
I can leave a greater foundation for the next generation.
Eternally grateful – Constantly smiling.
