Thanks Amy. Yeah, it’s not so much the photos or the way any form of media captures a person or moment, as it is the emotion tied to the person or moment itself. THAT is what makes up memories. And although we may carry a small snapshot in our wallet, it’s only a representation of that emotion. Emotion itself can only be captured in our hearts (collective aww).

Too much deep thinking? Yeah, probably.

But the point I was really trying to make in my post is that it’s the realization of life’s simple little joys and beauties that I took for granted. And that it took falling in love to open my eyes to all the beauty that surrounds me. That’s a state of happiness (both calming and exciting) that is hard to match or surpass.

Hey David. I really liked this post because I think it’s so true to what you beautifully described. I think about the pictures at my house of friends, family and even past lovers. I look at those pictures and smile at the love in them but automatically remember what made me smile in that picture. Or what made me laugh hysterically after the picture. I have this one picture of me and two of my best friends on a rock, we didn’t know the picture had been taken and we were just talking. It was the day before college graduation.

I love that picture, not because it was captured but because I remembered talking to them. I remember laughing and almost falling off the rock, talking and thinking “this is the end of an era”, talking and just feeling… loved. Bravo on this post it was beautiful and well done

OMG I love, love, LOVE Anthony Hopkins!! I always said I wanted to marry someone just like him (or whoever he typically portrays in movies). However, "poop" might be a stretch even for him. But then again I'm just extremely uncomfortable with the word in general. Lol .-= Sara Davidson´s last blog ..Improve Your Happiness by Just Being Thankful! =-.

@Juliana
Thanks! Always good to hear when I inspire someone else to write.

@Sara
A lot of people hated that movie, but I liked it. Plus it was packed full of great Anthony Hopkins-style wisdom! When I’m old and gray, I want to turn into Anthony Hopkins, or at least the role he plays. He could even make the word “poop” sound elegant and powerful.

Really beautiful post, David. And that quote from Meet Joe Black is my absolute favorite quote about love.
