Memories...

When close friends have passed. I truly miss being able to reminisce with them about experiences we shared together. When you recall a special memory alone, it can bring joy. When you recall a special memory with someone else who also shared it with you, it brings much more joy. A confirmation of recollection and the shared human experience. As you get older and more friends pass away. It becomes harder and harder to find people to reminisce with about your younger days. At some point, the joy of your life experiences starts to fade away as you find it harder and harder to relate to the  younger generations and their very different experiences in a very different world. That is why people really don't want to live forever. Even with billions of people in the world with you, it would be far too lonely losing the people you love and shared life with. When they all go. You will want to go as well just to be with them. I thank Ke Akua all the time for letting me go on this journey with the people who have entered my life and who share this earthly journey with me. I couldn't ask for a more perfect trip. Or more perfect beautiful people...
