Recollections
We are surrounded by many people. We get used to their presence around us. In fact, we get so used to them being around that we take this presence for granted. And one day, they're gone. One day, we lose them..forever. Losing someone you've become so attached to is very upsetting. It's just like a chain. If one piece falls out, the link is lost, and the chain breaks.
Often, the healing process to overcome this loss is prolonged with the many memories we try to cherish. Some move on quickly, and a new life is started and everything that was once part of "the past" is forgotten. Others choose to linger in the past, not letting go. We must learn to treasure every moment with loved ones, for one day, we'll wake up, and find that that they're gone. Their memories will remain. It is good to commemorate it with a smile, a pleasant recollection that made us all laugh one day. We do not have to wait until that moment comes, we must cherish what we already have.
