Memories
Memories without photos are pearls.
They shimmer in the darkness when the sand around them is filtered again and
again by time.
Memories with photos age. They cannot
help. When the frames of the photos turn yellow (in the computer age, photos
age as technology evolves), memories dim with the dated background and the
old-fashioned clothes, hairstyle and smile. The only pleasant reason for
flipping through old photos is to find a wrinkleless, fresh face. That face
answers your questions about the growing youth around you.
