"A life is like a garden," he wrote. "Perfect moments can be had, but not preserved, except in memory."

 

It's a timely thought.

 

In this day and age of seemingly everything having to be preserved on camera by endless selfies, photo bombs, posts on facebook, video on youtube, whatsapp or whatever. Is there not something to be said for just quietly savouring the moment, taking it in properly, and remembering.

Strangely enough, my own conclusion, savour the moment and move on, though a few well choosen family group photographs will probably be appreciated by future generations.

like the one of my father and his brother binding corn some time in the late 1950's or early 60's.

very very strange seeing them both in their absolute physical prime, complete with "Teddy Boy" hair cuts.

Poinent I suppose.
