Just Breathe...

Memories are Gods little windows into our past. And because they are OUR memories, we can be choosy as to what we remember. There are good, bad, funny, sad- you name it- we can pull it out! As time goes by the memories fade. Sometimes becoming blurry or maybe even different to different people. I have been blessed in my life and I don't have many bad memories. The bad memories are associated with losing the ones I love! My blurry memories are trying to take the bad memories and replace it with the good. I see my mom and dad in healthy bodies and good minds in their little window of my past. I see Danny laughing and happy with no pain and a body made whole by Christ! Take your memories and make them happy! Capture that smile, laughter, even a smell! I remember sawdust! The smell of it after he would use the scroll saw! I remember the smell of biscuits and gravy cooking as I walked onto the porch at my moms! I can smell linament when I think of my dad-he rubbed it on everything! Sometimes the smells actually make me cry, but it feels so good❤ I think of it as an automatic window washer for my soul! As Fall creeps into our life-breathe deep and take that smell all the way to your soul! Even if it brings a few tears- It's just cleaning stuff up in there❤
