Favorite Quotes...

I still find each day too short for all the thoughts I want to think, all the walks I want to take, all the books I want to read, and all the friends I want to see.
-John Burroughs-


'Tis better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.

Memories...

It's interesting how memories are attached to all the senses. You touch something and it reminds you of your childhood. You eat animal crackers and it remembers how you've eaten them for years. You smell something and it reminds you of daycare as a kid. You see a picture and it reminds you of how much fun you had in high school. Finally, you hear someone's voice and remember all that you've done together.

It's amazing how memories are attached to pretty much everything, except for your new experiences. The brain is such an interesting thing. I can't believe we only use a small portion of it. Imagine if we used most of our brains. What would life be like?
