Description
What memories do you have of your childhood or the special people in your life? How do you feel when you reach out to these memories?
Memories give life color and richness as they unveil an interesting story. Some of our memories serve as a turning point in our lives. They act as a source of inspiration when we are faced with challenges.
Today's award-winning song, “In Color,” recorded by Jamey Johnson, is about how a picture says a thousand words. In our memories, those snapshots can fade to black and white. However, when those memories were made, they were vibrant, high-definition colors.
As I share memories of my dad and our lives, I encourage you to embrace your memories in full color.
