Remember when and just go?!?

Another post from my old Yahoo blog. Timing was appropriate again. Many more thoughts floating in my head. I'll write about these thoughts as soon as I collect them. I'm making new memories with long ago and new friends this weekend while participating in Twitter Food Challenge #2- Halloween/Fall Food edition! What will your choice be?

Entry for June 13, 2006


What prompts one to reminisce? Could it be a particular song, or a certain smell that triggers a fond memory? An old T-shirt? Is it when you find out that a friend has three months to live or you get the prognoses yourself? Is it a good thing or a waste of time? Can we use it to determine our outcome in life?
We could dwell on past and let our current lives slip away in a sense of loss & longing. We could use them to try and recreate, often ending in more disappointment. Maybe we should pick apart those events and find what truly left the impact.
Most of us wouldn't change our current lives, but if you could throw in dashes of the "good old days" we would. Okay,we still have to be adults and can't be as carefree as in our youth. However, we can learn to worry less.We can still dream big. We can giggle and play pranks on friends. We can turn up the car stereo and sing out loud. We can make new friends and memories. Find past ones and make more memories. Better yet, introduce your new friends to your old friends.
Whatever it is that we are holding on to, it's for a reason. Life is made up of moments. We all want a great life. Question is do you want it to constantly be remember when, what if, or let's do it!
