That last goodbye.
Now where was that?
After the restaurant meal?
Following that heated argument one night?
Perhaps that last phone call was the time?
All blurry now. Specifics forgotten.

Funny how often we can remember our meeting for the first time and forget the parting for the last time.

Very true, Elizabeth. My main interest is why I even thought of it that day. No idea at all.
Best wishes, Pete.

Sometimes I wonder, if I had known that this would be the “last time”, would I have made more of an effort to remember details? Would I have done anything differently? Food for thought….

I wonder that a lot. But I am also wondering why this thought ever popped into my head after a very long time.

Because of my traumatic childhood, my mind tends to block out unpleasant memories, even now, which drives me a little crazy at times.

The mystery here is why I was trying to remember. Now I can’t even remember that.

You said:
“A token for your thoughts.”
And I said:
“I saw the light fade from the sky
On the wind I heard a sigh
As the snowflakes cover my fallen brothers
I will say this last goodbye”
But I have a hobbit of forgetting things. I don’t recall where we were at the time…

I haven’t read The Hobbit since I was in junior school David. And I never watched the films. It’s a lovely quote though. 🙂

Painful details are better left forgotten. Unfortunately, mine are stamped in my memory for the last 12 years… outside court house. He glared, I smiled.
