...like a warm, comfortable bed...

I've been reading in preparation for my trip and I came across the following quote in the book. It caused me to think a bit...
Good memories are like a warm, comfortable bed after a tiring day. They receive the tired soul like a mother who takes a child that runs to her for safety into her cuddly embrace. Good memories say: here, everything will be okay again. They open windows and so hope gets an extended lease.
Memories are the things that sustain us when it's hard to see the end. I know they have given me life...and a bit of heartache. I've been reflecting on good memories and so many of them have been shared with you all. I'll soon be making more that I can share with you. It won't be first-hand, but I promise to be an engaging story teller upon my return.
