So I’m finding out Carolyn G. Heilbrun- The Closing Present of Time. I be taught a chapter on memory- and the seduction of nostalgia (a well-liked field of mine, you would possibly maybe maybe also be aware). And I be taught this…
“Every time those of us in our final a few years allow a memory to happen, we omit to possess a study what is in entrance of us, at the brand new tips and pleasures lets, if firmly within the veil, stumble upon and salvage pleasure from.”
Carolyn (in her seventies when she wrote this e-book) urges us to preserve veil within the here and now as we age, and now not waft into the psychological trap of nostalgia and memories. I wholeheartedly agree. I delight in finding out one thing new- every day- turning now to not an assumption, a perception or a addiction, but against the joy of a new skill, new expertise, new e-book, recipe, strolling path… you salvage the premise.
I know. It is now not easy. And sure, the monstrous reality is, it is been a monumentally mighty 365 days, due to the the pandemic. For folk in all places, of all ages and persuasions. We are- if truth be told- every other’s keeper within the harrowing period of Covid19.

Conserving myself originate, engaged within the here and now manner maintaining things unique. Letting lunge of the primitive, the ragged past, the so-called correct primitive days. Due to the as correct as they had been, they don’t appear to be now. And as rotten as some days will were, at the unique time would possibly maybe maybe be diverse. Now is new. And on this spirit, Steve and I raided the pantry and baked a pumpkin crumb cake.
Due to the cake. For breakfast. Now.
Pretty candy.
