'Just sitting out on the back porch, after having done some late spring organizing, and having come upon an old envelope filled with ageing photos from back when everyone took their 'rolls of film to Kodak to get them printed..... I sipped my coffee, and took them out one by one and was transported to another time in my life.
I viewed scene after scene of events that had taken place, and at the time I had thought were important enough to snap a picture of......
The kids were little then....
Funny hairdo's, and goofy adolescent grins....
I must have spent quite a while reminiscing over those old photos...as my coffee became cold, and I flipped through one after another of my memories.
It dawned on me, that those moments I caught on film were forever gone, except for their fading images on these pieces of paper.
That time in my life was now only a memory, that thankfully could be recounted as I gazed at the photos...
But what struck me was the thought that those moments, that block of 'time, spent in the 'yesterdays of my life, were now today's memories.
That prompted me to consider, once again, how important it is to select how you chose to spend your today's, as they will become tomorrows memories.
Chose well, and enjoy each day, and love all those around you and tomorrow you will look back on your memory of today with a smile.
