Missed Connections In Ithaca, NY
Memories Of You

Funny how old habits bring old memories to the surface.
As I was pulling on a pair of comfy pants,
It occurred to me that they used to be yours,
And that you gave them to me so that I would wear them
And think of you.
I still have a hard time believing that was
6 years ago.
I have my moments of missing us,
But know that we are both better off apart.

Note from the Missed Connections Chief Bottle Finder:

It’s often said that elephants never forget, but I think that humans have an amazing capacity to remember (and selective remember and erroneously remember) as well. This photograph by Julia’s Photography with its bright colors and contrast is somewhat like a memory – sharp in some places and fuzzy in others.
