When you remember me...
When you remember me, it means that you have carried something of who I am with you, that I have left some mark of who I am on who you are. It means that you can summon me back to your mind even though countless years and miles may stand between us. It means that if we meet again, you will know me. It means that even after I die, you can still see my face and hear my voice and speak to me in your heart. For as long as you remember me, I am never entirely lost. When I'm feeling most ghost-like, it is your remembering me that helps remind me that I actually exist. When I'm feeling sad, it's my consolation. When I'm feeling happy, it's part of why I feel that way. If you forget me, one of the ways I remember who I am will be gone. If you forget, part of who I am will be gone. -Fredrick Buechner

I had to remove the above post because the person who posted the link to another site was not truthful about the content of that site. Which is strange since it was an alternative religion site that seeks to provide another way by discrediting The Way and using manipulation to send people to their site sure seems to be a lower consciousness kind of thing. Come on people...say who you are and lets not play games like that please. I allow comments for interaction not for flaming or reservoirs for others who need to siphon off readers. Let your work speak for itself, you shouldn't have to deceive people to get a voice.
