I prefer not to forget, because we learn from events, even if they are bad, I prefer to remember, especially the good moments that motivate us in life.
In life we go through good and bad moments, and that is life. Remembering them can help us to improve, to relive good moments, and in the case of the bad ones to try not to go through them again, that is why it is better to remember them, although it is true that some can be traumatic, but, even if our conscious mind forgets them, our unconscious will never do it, they will still be there and in some way they will manifest themselves. And if I forget them when I am old, it will be because my brain decided so for some reason, to protect me or to live a disconnected life, for some reason, there is always a reason.
You rarely forget the good moments, but rather you forget the bad ones, it's a protection system, that's how we were designed. Some say that good things are short-lived, I prefer to think that, although the quality moments, the good moments are short-lived, the important thing is just that, the quality and having lived them.
I have spent several hours going back in time, thinking about what I have lived, it has been so much that it seems I have lived several lives and sometimes I think I could write many books, too many... maybe that way I would be remembered, as a person who put her focus on inner wisdom, on that increasing every day of my life, because that's all we take with us from this physical world.
Memories... memories... memories... 2000... a year where for many something was ending, perhaps the world or there would be momentous changes. I believe that changes must be made by each person. Memories...
I was 22 years old, I was studying at the university and I always say and remember that the best thing that that place gave me was to meet my sister in life, whom I love with all my heart. I know that we are connected in soul, friends and sisters, each one with her own life, but united in friendship.
I met her a few years before and that friendship grew, but that year 2000, after denying many things, she gave me the news that she was getting married and not only in a civil ceremony but also in a church and not only that, but I would be the witness of the civil ceremony and I would testify before the priest that I knew her and her fiancé.
For me it was an honour and a privilege, I remember that day as well as the days that followed, every moment, every instant. I remember that day at the door of the registry office, my signature as a witness, the commitment that made my friend take on that special moment. I remember so many things, the rice that fell on the door at the exit, the congratulations, even the way she was dressed, and me, the nerves and the emotion. I remember my immense happiness for the moment she was living.
I remember .... I remember the trip to the place where her husband was born, where the church wedding was to take place, I remember the dress fitting, I remember the night before as we chatted and waking up the expected day at the home of one of her husband's relatives.
I remember the photo session before going to the church, how I helped the dressmaker to arrange the dress for each photo. I remember her entrance into the church and how I stood in the background looking at her while tears of happiness fell from my eyes. The sun was shining so bright that day and everything was perfect. I remember the reunion afterwards, so familiar, so beautiful and I remember her radiant and happy face. It was the only thing and it is the only thing that matters to me, that she is happy.
I remember that day in 2000 when she told me she was getting married and I will never forget it, because she is the sister I chose for my life and that was one of the most important moments of her life and she made me part of it.
To remember is to relive the moment and at this very moment I relive that moment and then the event with tears of happiness. And that is because of the weekend themes presented by @galenkp, thank you for that.
Thank you all for joining me today, I wish you a very good weekend. See you soon.

Thank you very much @stresskiller and @ecency 🤗
Hello dear friend @avdesing, good day!
I also think the same way: we should always remember the bad things, learn from them, and even use them as examples of what not to do. As for the good times, we should repeat them as often as possible, echoing the things that make us feel good and happy.
How wonderful that you found and chose your soul sister, and what beautiful memories you have, and what wonderful things you've experienced together.
I take this opportunity to wish you a wonderful weekend!
It was a great moment, very emotional and I will never forget it, thank you very much Luis!🤗
Good memories are good to remember, I'm not sure about the bad ones 😆
Looks like the event marked you quite nicely, which is good.
We have known each other for almost 30 years! She lives in Argentina and I moved to Spain but our friendship is getting stronger and stronger. Thank you!🤗
How are you, Amonet?
It's wonderful to have a friend you love so much, someone you consider your sister; that's truly beautiful.
How exciting to be part of this wonderful celebration as a witness at your sister's wedding!
These are definitely moments you'll never forget.
Have a beautiful afternoon!
I will never forget those moments, they were too special. Thanks to you beautiful, you always read me and are always present!
