When I was two years old my uncle gave me a “real live, Smokey the Bear,” teddy bear for Christmas. Smokey had a hat, badge and shovel, which was lost so early on that I don’t remember them.

The previous post, Our Memories, suggested that — in large part because they become faded self-imaginings— we might want to consider not clinging to our event memories as much as we sometimes do.

Those last few days were like a taste of freedom. After months and seasons of going to school every day, we could see the light at the end of the tunnel – and boy, did it feel amazing. I have incredibly strong memories of the last days of school throughout my elementary years.

It was a fun walk down memory lane from the British Columbia ferry we rode on our honeymoon to a recent public row boat from the cities of Rabat to Salé across the Bou Regreg river in Morocco [see photo above]. | Living The FIgh Life
