You are safe in my Memory

"Do People make Memories, or its the memories that mark the importance of someone in your life."






Its kind of my continuous second post on 'Memories'. The reason for this post is the thought that struck my mind, while talking to a friend. We were talking about, the past memories of our life - childhood, school, college, friends and what not.

The topic while on shifted to us, and he said - "Sometimes I think, how will I remember you, I don't have memories of you." I asked him, "What for you are memories? Isn't talking to each other and sharing so much, part of memories? Isn't the times we spend talking, even if not together are part of memory?"
Him: "Memories, of spending time together, memories of doing something different, some adventure together."
Me: "Aren't all these times, memories for you.?"
Him: "Times that we spend together."
Me: "Do you rely on times and memories to remember me? Isn't it the people who make memories, memories do not make people. Its the people in your life, who make the memories special and worth remembering. And you will realize this, once these days have passed out of your hands."

You dont have to rely on memories to remember people who have been a part of your life, touched you and with there presence made your moments worth remembering.

Actually, I agree with what your friend said. Whether you like it or not, sometimes people do drift apart, even those who might at one point of time been the best of friends. Life is such.

At such times, when you only remotely even remember someone's face or voice, its memories that you associate with someone. And memories are more clear only when theyre associated with images. Maybe photographs, or gifts, or a place, or a song, or something tangible.

Sorry for sounding so practical :P

@ Keshi,

you have said it so rightly, that i have no words left with me :)
I like to remember people by laughter.

i recall a song here:"ye yaadein kisi dilo jaanam ke chale jaane ke baad aati hain" we never realize in our daily life that even the smallest things about people could become memories once they are away or gone and when we miss them.
good post yaar.

@ Aditya

Welcome to my blog.

So true, its after they are gone, that you realise their importance in your lives.
Thanks :)
