"I cling to the parts I remember. I mourn for the pieces that I forget."
This is beautiful. Thanks for this post.
My grandfather used to take me to the bar where he cleaned up. He taught me how to shoot pool and I could drink from the soda machine. It's a warm memory, but tinged with sadness, as he died from alcoholism. Decades later, I still miss him.
