“A person is as alive as their memories and I truly believe that once a memory is lost, it is so hard to reclaim. As a memory fades away, a little bit of what made the person, event, or emotion is gone. With time, we disappear to become only a memory. By sharing, these memories bring us together and keep us apart.”
