Memories Are Made Of This.

Heard that Drifters oldie last night and it reminded me of how important it is to remember and cherish beautiful moments in our past. In a world where we often experience great pain and hurt, those special memories should be recalled ever so often to remind us that the world is still a beautiful place. The memories do not have to be about romance specifically, but any wonderful, memorable experience. Do you have any to share? Song by the Drifters.

My Dad passed when I was 11. But I still have a fond memory of sitting on his lap playing hand clapping with him. I was about 6-7 years old at that time.

@Kandae11 It’s very hard to get past the loss of your loved ones. And to me the good memories are sad because those times will never come again.

I remember Dean Martin doing this song, then Jim Reeves’ version became my favorite. (Imagine that, me liking Jim Reeves! ) I love how music can bring certain memories back. I heard a song the other day that had played on my iPod when my mom and I were driving through Cades Cove in the Smoky Mountains on a trip, and it brought those wonderful scenes back.

Music is indeed a powerful medium. I remember hearing songs which were popular when l was a teenager and l get the feeling of being back in time to a very wonderful place. I should listend to the Jim Reeves version..

Leaving good and memorable footprints is beneficial for the deceased and family members and acquaintances who are left behind.

I very much agree. Most of us can remember a special person or event that can make us smile.

I like your opinion, as long as we are on this earth, I think it is necessary to make an interesting trip as a memory. I will tell you a little about my experience, that I had a beautiful story when I was in college, because I could travel in many places. But since I've been working, now I rarely entertain myself because I'm too busy with my work. Thank you for making me remember something I've forgotten.
