Memories

Memories…
                          Warm, Bright, Lovely, Wonderful
                           Cherished so deep in my heart

                            …and I’ll have them forever

                                       Memories…
                              Cold, Dark, Ugly, Violent
                             Disturbing me deep inside

                            …and I’ll have them forever

Andrea Dietrich Date: 8/24/2017 5:50:00 PM very interesting this contrast. Eerily true!! I really enjoyed this, Chris, and to answer your question, I can carry on a conversation in Spanish; however, if I am in a large group of speakers where they are all using slang and speaking fast, I have a hard time following (especially certain movies in Spanish) I do love the language though.

I admire those who can speak more than one language, since I failed to learn Spanish...although i do speak horse, so maybe that's my second language haha! :) C.H.

Paul Callus Date: 8/23/2017 2:52:00 PM I couldn't have expressed myself any better, Chris! Memories are abstract pictures that are available in positive and negative, in black and white...I suppose some could be classified as 'neutral'. Pleased to see a new post of yours:) Regards // paul Login to Reply Chris Hagy Date: 8/24/2017 7:32:00 PM Glad you stopped by Paul, and glad you can relate. The human mind is a tricky thing...have great day :) C.H.

Lynn Marie Date: 8/21/2017 4:48:00 PM So true Chris. One doesn't come without the other. How would we measure happiness if not to know the despair at the opposite end of the scale. Makes appreciating the 'bright' all the more special. Beautiful and wise xo Login to Reply Chris Hagy Date: 8/22/2017 8:26:00 PM So true Lynn, what doesn't actually kill me makes me appreciate all the little things :) Like beautiful and wise friends to share thoughts with :) C.H.
