A note on memories.

Aug 28, 2010 17:29

"Strange that the memories of youth linger long, stay vivid, perhaps because we live our young lives more intensely. Everything is fresh and for the first time, and unforgettable. And we have more time just to stand and stare. Strange too that the events of my more recent years, my adult years, are more clouded, less distinct. Time gathers speed as we get older. Life flashes by all to fast, and is over all too soon."
