Remember

Anyone that knows me well knows that I love to take pictures.  For me it is a way to remember the past.  As I was looking through pictures on my computer this past week, I ran across the photo below of a time during my mission.  It was one of my favorite areas, and where I really enjoyed working with the missionaries I served with.  As I looked back at that time in my life, for a moment I wished I was there again.  I was having the time of my life.  I don't think we realize what we had until we've lost it, or until the time has passed and it is no longer the present.  I think the reason I like to take pictures is because it captures parts of our lives, enabling us to hold on to it forever.
