Make An Effort To Remember. Or, Failing That, Invent
Sia has a much better memory that do I, and supplies this quote that I've been searching and searching for. I suspect that these internet tubes will make growing older less painful for many of us!
There was a time
when you were not a slave,
remember that you walked alone,
full of laughter,
you bathed bare-bellied.
You may have lost all recollection of it,
remember...
You say there are not words to describe it,
you say it does not exist.
but remember,
make an effort to remember,
or, failing that,
invent.
Monique Wittig
Wicca made a lot of us remember, and then, we've gone on to invent. I love the invention.
