“Sometimes you will never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory.” – Dr. Seuss.

Looking at the full moon
A wave of nostalgia strikes me
I’m transported back to my youth
Where I’d sit by myself and look 
At the starry sky or the full moon
Alone on the hostel roof, in contemplation 
I’d think about the secret of life and universe 
I am amazed that how a sight, a phrase or aroma 
Takes us back to days long ago
And we experience the exact same feelings that we did
At that moment in the past
 That’s the power of a memory

Written for This week’s weekly prompt; NOSTALGIA, hosted by Sue W and GC

I am writing to express my opinion, share my experiences and to maybe provide some insight. My blog is addressing women at 50 ( but men are welcome to read my posts) ,their issues and the questions that come up at this stage in life. I don’t aim to teach, but to learn together.
