Wow…

It is about 4:01 am Wednesday the 29th of December, 2011. I am experiencing something foreign right now, something… almost new. For I have only experienced this possibly a few times or maybe even not at all before this moment. As I sit here looking at former images of innocence that I once knew as a child, but had forgotten about since then, I have this feeling in my throat, a sort of flutter in my stomach, I start to tremble almost as I try so very hard to keep what seems as tears from forming from my eyes. Past childhood memories fly through my mind here, now there, I thought I had forgotten about them but just looking at what seems like a ordinary picture children’s book… I start to remember everything again. And now I can’t hold them back anymore, as tears start to form from my eyes just from looking at all of these what look just like simple items hold so many memories to them… Oh, the Places You’ll Go! By Dr.Seuss, the Giving Tree, The Fox and the Hound, and even mint chocolate chip ice cream. But a question still lingers with me are these tears out of sadness or memory?
