This poem resonated with me in more ways than one; what is (not) forgetting?
Vivian Zems
Mum, author and dentist is how I describe myself. I love creating pictures from words. Sometimes a painter, other times a weaver- words are my tool; trying to create something beautiful. When I was nine, my dad introduced me to audio books. I was hooked. With his guidance, I fell into a world where words became life simply by weaving them together. So here I am, living out my passion- reading and writing! Enjoy the ride with me 😁😁

I can see why… this one means so much. The reality of it goes right into the heart and reminds the brain that thinking and feeling and wanting (what is no longer around) feel so much like the same things, sometimes. I’m amazed (and a bit annoyed) by people who say things like, “Forgive and forget.” It makes me want to smack them really hard, and then tell them, “Forgive the loose teeth and then forget about the whole incident.” Forgetting is a dream (or a nightmare, if it happens through disease). Again, I can see why this one digs so deep.
