We look back towards our past lives,
To those times of love and joy;
To the times of disquiet and sadness ;
The times that mean so much to us;
And those times that we would rather forget;
But every time we look back
As each new day passes,
The more time there is to see.

Good write Gold. I thought this would be about 5 million verses long, with your and my past years! lol.
No, that one is in hte archives Orchi. LOL
A reflection of our past
Very true Norman, thank you.
Andy
most welcome
A most philosophical write my friend where time becomes a road we have walked and looking back we can see how far we have come. Nicely done Andy
Very true soren, hopefully that road will go in forever.

And each new day opens up opportunities 🕊️🙏🏻
They certainly do Rik and may those opportunities bring fulfilment to us all.

I really try not to look back, because even in the present there are always things that we wish weren't there but in a way we appreciate the weight of the now and what's been so we can naturally appreciate. 🌹
Very true words Teddy but we hopefully only remember the good times as we look back.
