Reflection

I copy down lines from books, magazines and occasionally from articles found on the web. Yesterday two lines captured my attention and both dealt with memory and the past.

Time is the longest distance between two places.-- Tennessee Williams

Doesn't that capture the futility of going home again and expecting things to be the same. People you knew decades ago and haven't seen since then--do not remain the same, but memories do not allow for aging.

Then there's this line by Tom Long: What is required in confession of sin? first, there is the courage of memory.

Unpacking that line requires a mirror.
