Every memory is precious. It is more precious when it is a memory of a baby’s smile.

About This Quote

A great memory can be a moment that never goes away. A great memory can be a memory of a baby’s smile. As we get older, we lose the ability to remember the things that have affected us in our lives. We can never forget the memories from our childhood, but we can remember them more clearly when they are connected to other memories from our past.

For example, when I was a kid there was a neighbor named Mr. Brandywine who had a beautiful garden full of flowers. Every spring he would sit on his stoop and feed the birds while watching his children play in the yard.

I didn't know Mr. Brandywine because I wasn't allowed to play in his yard, but I liked to watch him from my bedroom window. The best thing about Mr.

Brandywine was that he reminded me of my grandfather who had passed away when I was young. He was grandfatherly and caring, and he always made me smile when I saw him sitting on his stoop feeding birds and watching his children play in the yard. He gave me a glimpse into what my life could have been like if my grandfather had lived long enough for me to know him as a child growing up in South Africa during apartheid .
