About This Quote

The most significant thing in our lives is often our memories. We never forget the time when we were in love with someone, when we were in pain or when life was at its simplest. Our memories are all that remain of the person that we have been. Memories are important because they are still alive in us, even after the person who gave them to us is long gone.
