Take a look at all of these memories
snap the sort of pictures that last
write down thoughts that matter
especially if they matter only to you
these things become time capsules
save them for the later you
reminding us of where we've been
what we've done
and who went there with us
sharing some of their lives in the process
even if it was only for a short time
people come into and go out of our lives
and that's okay
remind yourself that you cared
when it was important to care
that you loved when it was important to love
and let go of the pain every time it arrives
because all of this is you
it's made up of you
because of you
it is you
and who you are is perfect
and wonderful
and so beautifully human
because you lived in those moments
as you should live in every moment
remembering to always be kind
to seek each grand adventure
with an open heart and fresh eyes
and always to remember
save your memories
for later
