[hometext] => Memories from youth to old age
[bodytext] => I remember…those days when I was young, full of dreams, desire, ambition, and knowing things will change, yes, things I can change. I remember my days of youth, happiness, tears, anxiety and those days of friends and caring for one another. I remember those days, days filled with rain and filled with sunshine, of ambitions, ah… ambitions that were never to be. I remember my youth, my aging, my thinking I will live forever…old age was not to be, never be mine, for youth, life, health was my destiny. I remember, now, yes…I do remember, I remember growing old, I remember things that took me unawares… I remember now, I remember my hair turning gray, my new aches and pains, the failing sight… I remember now, what was then, and what is. I remember the heartaches, the joy, the excitement the burning desires, and giving those emotions… yes, they still linger, those days of wine and roses. I remember, while I can remember, and share those memories with myself, my conscious mind, and then, those memories make life worth living…and sharing with myself. I remember, now, that life and health were never promised to me…I remember that those things I should remember are gone…never to be remembered. I remember most of all, that there is a God in heaven and lastly my thoughts, on that day, that final day I will remember my God and His promises to me. I remember my youth...gone forever. I remember promises kept, promises not kept, but promises from the Divine, those, now those, I can trust, those….I remember.
