Memories

I have these memories that have been in my mind and reflect and go back in 
time sometimes painful sometimes unkind And they seem so clear to me as I 
look back at my life Some are pleasant some sad. I try not to think of the hurtful 
memories that were bad. When the bad thoughts come my way and try and 
brush them off and enjoy the day. Sometimes the pain we had when we were 
young felt so real and hurt like a bubble bee when you got stung. You can reflect 
on the painful moments you had. It is ok for as you see things now  and what you 
have you can be sure that you are glad what you are doing with your life today you 
are enjoying the moments just for today. I remember when I was that little girl. 
Who sometime did not feel love or have been ignored. Something’s  were hard 
do deal with so I stayed up in my room and decided to hide. I know now that I am 
liked and have a lot of good inside. Memories are sometimes good  or 
sometimes bad. We cant all have life easy al though we wish we could. But deep 
down inside I can say I am grateful for the good  things and the family I had. I 
don’t shut the door of these thoughts I have I just try and do what is right  and not 
question to what is in store. We all  have ghost in the closet and  was not proud 
of our life and the people we hurt alone the way. Take each moment and enjoy 
the  good memories and our families  who have become so dear. Sometimes 
we do not understand what has happened in our past and the people that we 
lost that has been so dear .But even the worse things were not as bad  as it 
seems. Try and not let those  fears of our past get away. The most we can enjoy 
is the now and today. It was real as we look back in time and now as the years 
go past us it seems like only a dream. Be the best you can be for your fellow 
man. No matter how old you are and what kind of road you have traveled  your 
memories are like a library a big stack of books and was not as bad as it looked. 
you look back in your life they will  always be in your mind and you can take your 
thoughts and store them away for another time. Now I am older and can see 
clear for my loved ones who are missed  and have been very dear. When you 
have these thoughts. And your mind is racing. Don’t forget the past and hold 
them dear to your heart. As I am telling you now for enjoy the  memories the here 
and now.
