Do you ever find yourself strolling down memory lane? There are many things from my childhood that I wish I could forget. It's funny that I have problems remembering the names of people that I have day to day dealings with or what I had for supper the night before and yet I find myself at odd times recalling things from long ago as if they had just happened. I was walking to my car the other day and I recalled a day I came home from school. I had a terrible headache. I was in the 2nd grade. I remember laying down on my bed and looking out the window for what seemed a life time. I remember the curtains on the windows. They were race cars. I even remember the layout of the room (this coming from a guy who has lost his car in a parking lot on more than one occasion). Then today I remember the time I took my books and made towers out of them and knocked them down (I was Godzilla). I even remember the time I took the sheets off the bed and made a nest on the floor, Just like Big Birds on sesame street (I was 5 years old). I just find it amazing that I can recall such unimportant things from my childhood in such great detail. I often wish I could do just the opposite. You know, just recall some painful memory and say well I hated that and click the erase button and poof gone forever. I know that those times in my life are part of who I am today (good or bad). I would like to think that it has made me a better person for it. I know that it created a lot of walls that my family and friends wish they could take a bulldozer to. Over the years since I met my wife a lot of those walls have come down. I think some of the thicker walls have deteriorated some, but I still need that bulldozer to show up to complete the mission. If you have walls hanging around your back yard, take inventory and tear down the ones you don't need. you might find that the thicker walls might come down a little easier if those various silly walls clear the way. just something I need to do and thought I would pass the advice I need to take along to you.
Blessings till I post again.
