Oh! That i may never forget!

Am just pondering on the fact that things change, people change, lifestyles change, attitude and personalities change. And even as change takes place and my human memory may somehow fail to remember certain events in life - and as I traverse along the days, to this I want to hold on to...

Memories pile up every second,
Relationships twine and entwine one season or another,
Events and activities unfold every other month,
The world opens up to me,
My eyes have captured a great deal,
My ears have heard much,
My heart has experienced much,
Oh, that I may never forget!

From a little girl,
To a young lady,
And transition to a woman,
I’m here now…
Oh, that I may never forget!

From the day I had my first breath,
To the life and living,
From the day I said the most important prayer,
To the umpteen other prayers said along the years,
From a spiritual baby, to a spiritual adult,
And still growing (will always!),
From season to season,
Time upon time,
In quietness and mind blowing seasons,
Oh, that I may never forget!

Lessons learned,
Revelations revealed,
More to come, much to be learnt,
The journey is ahead is greater,
Oh, that I may never forget!

The pieces You have put together over the years,
The proof in my journals and other writings,
Let me not ever take it for granted,
It’s because You started in me that I am where I am today,
The seeds You have sown in my life,
The foundations You have built in my life,
The people You have allowed me to cross paths with,
The encounters You have allowed me to experience,
Let me not neglect the spirit of thanksgiving and gratitude,
Of grace, mercy and love that has brought me through…
Oh, that I may never forget!
