In our time
your presence
has shined,
and glowed
a fluorescent warmth;
everything seems in shadow
when your presence
does not glow.
Always remember to forget,
the things that made you sad.
But never forget
the things that made you glad.
Always remember
the troubles that have passed away,
but never forget
the blessings that come each day.

Well said! We tend to forget all the good times when the going gets rough. ^^

We definitely do. Sometimes it’s hard to take a step back and appreciate what we have, in the roughest and best of times 😃✌️
