all those photographs

Over the past five years, we've had three weddings and two funerals in my immediate family. The wonderful aspect of all these is that our family gathers together for the occasion.

At the end of June, we had the first anniversary of the most recent marriage. Thinking of that special, happy time I decided to bring out the photo album to enjoy the images again and the memories they precipitate.

Then I thought this was quite a good thing to do. A great many of our photographs lie stacked away in boxes, a drawer, hidden in albums. Yes, we've accumulated lots. And now, in this digital age, we've many more. And if we never look at them, what's the use of keeping them?

So I'm going to start bringing them out on birthdays, deathdays and especially wedding anniversaries. I'll look back, reminisce and begin to harvest the blessings of life.
