Have you ever thought about all the people you have known in your life, those that were closer than others, and you find yourself thinking that the times you had with them will never repeat them self again, ever? Isn’t it amazing how songs can bring out the memories? Songs are so powerful.

Sometimes I sit back and I realise that the moments, the good times, I shared with someone were meant to be cherished for the moments they were. The irony is that I always think I will revisit that scene somehow, yet it only replays in my memory, not for real. In this time I’m thinking of a family member whom I last saw at least six months ago, maybe a year, and their life has undergone such a dramatic change that the times I remember with them seem so distant. I remember the year I turned 21, back in 2001, the day before 9-11, when they came from Pretoria for my birthday. Its been 7 years.
