The Gift of Memory

Recently, I was reminded by a good friend-cum-mentor on the gift of memory from God. It is the gift of being able to remember all the good times/moments of life... just like how people say that time is a great healer of all wounds. It's true!

Just think about some of the difficult moments of your life...eg tough times with parents during your teenage years, those restrictions/rules, clashes with parents and how you wish you were living on your own, etc. Looking back, I don't remember much of those times already... they've almost been shelved, hidden and forgotten...

So that's how it is with life challenges... all things will come to a past. As my favourite book's author, M Scott Peck writes, "Life is difficult"... no matter what your situation may be, be it being a real parent or making the choice to be a step-parent. Let's press on!
