The Power of a Memory

     They say your earliest recollection of memories is around the age of three--the power associated with these strong moments are often underestimated. For some, memories are just a blur-- a blip of time on the clock of your lifetime. On the contrary memories are one of the most meaningful things in the world. The whole idea of time travel can be substituted with a memory...you miss something so bad and want to be back in that one place and feel those same feelings; so your mind transports you to that place you desire. It's also a tool to help us move on in life; you can't hang on to the person or place, but you most definitely can remember them.
     This rings true many of the times, you can move on but you can never forget. When you think about it, the items that make your mind race back to that memory is astonishing. The start of a song and I can nearly touch that special someone, the picture on my Facebook wall and I can put myself back into that moment, the familiarity of a road and the vibe I got once before jolts back, the smell of just a simple candle can push my thoughts into motion. All these little things merge together and creates an ideal feeling--maybe a feeling of euphoria. But not quite, how can one feel euphoria in reality? This is possible find your happiest moment, whatever that is, and embrace it. It's another way to relieve stress. People should strive to make memories in their day to day lives. A memory is a photograph you just need to take control of the camera and take all the pictures...as many as you like.
