Suitcase of Memories

When I was younger, I loved hearing the song from Cyndi Lauper, ''Time after Time.'' As I grew up, the song gathered meaning to it as the years rolled past. I realized that with all that has happened in my life, it is my suitcase of memories and I should write them down. When I am old and have grandchildren, I can tell them about my life and all it's many stories. I may get dementia, or somehow lose my memory, so I know if I pack my suitcase of memories now and keep adding to it, I will look back someday from now and remember how things happened and know I am a stronger person for what I went through. I know it will help people in certain situations know that they are not alone. Some of these postings will be about people in my life. Some will be about places I've been,and some will be about events that I've lived through. Everyone is a closed book waiting to be opened and read so I am opening my book to the world so you can learn about,me. Tiffany Jill
