Been There, Done That

Just sitting around watching ride videos of places I've been. Oh, I didn't shoot the videos but been there. People sometimes ask how I can keep going to places I've seen before. It's like rereading a book or watching a familiar movie. They can be "new" because I've changed; they bring back a forgotten thought or feeling.

Today I visited the cemetery where my daughter is buried. It had changed so much that I needed help finding the grave. 1986 may seem like a long time ago but is only yesterday in my heart.

Certain roads, hiking trails, landscapes, thoughts and people are what make you who you are. I am so immersed in the present that revisiting the past helps clarify the paths on this journey I call life.
