Faint thoughts are mine to bear, Inside my mind; stale air. Like a tide washed ashore, Inside me, many doors. Memory is obscure, There are lots of detours. I forget what I've known, It hurts down to the bone. Recalling the bad times, Not good times, that's a crime. ©April 28, 2013 / Jerry Pat Bolton ~*~ If they give you lined paper, write sideways. ~*~ |

The brain is a funny thing. It remembers everything but it will only let us recall what it wants to. And yes the bad memories do have a way of overshadowing the good. Goodmorning JP Lori  |

You are correct, Lori, as you are so often. I suppose the brain reminds us of those things in order to impress upon us to walk straight. Thank you for your input. ~*~ If they give you lined paper, write sideways. ~*~ |

Remembering is good as long as we don't forget to remember the good and not only the bad. Damn memory! It gets in the way sometimes. |
