It doesn't mean you forget, but to acknowledge that things have changed and some things you can never have back again. Hopefully they are good memories that puts a smile on your face when you think about them.
Today's melancholy was triggered by a walk around my back five and my empty barn. I miss my horses, and to be honest, I don't go out there very often as my heart weeps when I do. Back in February I threw some wild flower seeds out back, thinking that if anything ever blooms it will be in remembrance of Middy and Bailey, and help me smile.
Today three yellow flowers (not dandelions!) greeted me! I was so excited to see that something had survived and was blooming just for me!
I have so much to be grateful for and look forward to. I know that I am truly blessed! Thank you for giving me the wonderful memories that I cherish so much and I will forever remember you and look for new flowers to bloom.
The season is changing, and it's time for me to let go...
