Morgan Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 You don’t realise the importance of a moment, until it becomes a memory. How true, but equally, how sad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes you have to be a very attuned person to know when a great moment is happening in that moment and cherish it . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Locky Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 Really speaking to me there @Morgan. Going through a phase of only having memories of what I once had, and getting too caught up in said memories to make new ones or enjoy the moment. Funny old thing is life.

Good point, James. It's something that I've probably only achieved myself a couple of times. 54 minutes ago, Locky said: Really speaking to me there @Morgan.

Surely you're too young, Locks, to have many bad memories already? I certainly hope you are. As you say though, it's a funny old thing.

We never just think about a time when we had a great time until much later on I feel . We don’t live in the moment really . I’m similar to you as I can only recall certain times when everything seemed to fit into place . A magical time . One time was my first Job . Meeting new people at my work , having my own money and out with new work mates etc . I have had other great times but would need to think deeper to retrieve them . Sadly our. Brains are wired to easily drench up the sad / negative times . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharpie Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 I have reached an age and stage in life when there is not much ambition or planning involved everything is basically day to day. What I do have though are a compendium of memories, of true love, of the joys of a beautiful family. Of a career of many laughs, progress and people it was a privilege to know. Travel, excitement, success, all good to look back on. It is easy to look back and feel you have been deprived of much, but the good memories correct this by telling you here we are, enjoy.

AlimOzturk Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 I am at the age now where I am losing my grandparents and some closed loved ones. My grandad especially i took losing pretty hard. I have a lot of regrets especially not seeing them a much as I should or could have but especially regret not cherishing those special moments with them as much as I could. I tend to try and not look back at things as you can no longer control what has been. But I just wish I could have another opportunity to thank them for their love and the wonderful memories I did have for them. And tell them how much I respected them.

When your actual blood relatives are all gone and only you and your son survive, the main thing I have found for internal peace, is that you done what you could do in a positive way towards them all is the thing that gives a small feeling of peace and contentment. I thankfully have that. Edited January 30, 2022 by Sharpie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL that reminds me of the great scene in " The Sopranos" when Tony and his mates are slagging Gennie Sacks ( a rather large wife of another mob boss" " Gennie Sacks ass is so big it has its own zip code" " She bleeds ragu" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
