I live for looking back
It’s all I can remember
Ask me what I did yesterday and I cannot oblige
Ask me what I did 20 years ago and I could write a book
This recall deficit wasn’t planned
It was hitting the ground in 2001 that decided it

A child can grow your smile you never thought you had
A child can make that smile have a regular place
Yet that child has the power to remove that smile
Without ever meaning to
And yet that child has that same power to return that smile
Being completely oblivious to this control
Yet without these unknowing powers that alter you
They wouldn't be the child you love

The mirror is a wonderful thing
The mirror is a frightful thing
It can positively highlight those points that aren't that bad
Yet, as time goes on
It can negatively highlight those points we knew were there
but never wanted to admit

Look at that person you’re with,
That person chose you.
Try not to do anything
to make that person think they made the wrong choice
Smile at that person you’re with
And make them remember why they chose you.
Then smile again, and mean it.

Never be the one that is constantly seeking forgiveness,
be the stronger one, and do things that never need forgiving.
Be the one that forgives
Life is long, but very short

Don’t go through your life looking back thinking,
why didn’t I, I could have, if only I’d, what if?
...make those right choices now.

Use, make the most of, appreciate,
and love everything you’ve got,
because when it’s gone
It may never come back.

Our lives roll on relentlessly
Seemingly as if nothing of any significance or important is being recorded
Yet look back on today’s soon to be past
and the present will soon be your future nostalgia
...make it memorable
