Memories of our pasts are at times best held in the glorious light we had them
shine in to make it easier to handle the cruelty of reality. As friends and
family age, it places a heaviness on the heart seeing those we cherish in a
different place but it seems that at times this is the reality is life. For
those who can accept the transitions without the pain it may make us stronger
but it truly does impact us a heavy heart.
