perceptions + quotes + reality =
A to Z Challenge~
The span of our lifetime is a conglomeration of days-
Often connected with what we tag as memories,
nostalgia, or the good ol’ days…
Memories of yesterday
loiter within my mind
conjuring up all that was left behind.
Although remnants remain in the rearview mirror,
Yesterday lays the substance of our todays
as the door swings in silence
sealed on our residual times.
"Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift, that's why we call it the present. "

Wonderful Y post. Love the old photos. Hope you have a nice weekend. Only one more letter to go!
Aw, That's lovely. The old photos are so much fun, too.
A most excellent Y post. YESTERDAYs and lots of 'em.
Great post! I thought about yesterday as a Y word but I didn't think of it the way you did. I love the photos :)
I have only one photo of my Mom & Dad because I was raised by guardians...I will cherish it forever!...:)JP
Now I love the Y of yesterday - how true all the things you say. And I did not know Winnie was the author of that statement. I love him. sandie
I have always thought Winnie was brilliant and love that quote.
Those old photos are precious.
I also love that quote :)
Oh this is so precious. How our pictures, old and new tell the story of our lives.

Hi Tracy Sweetie...
Aren't memories the best? I love that I can pull one from the shelf in my mind, whenever I need it, and I can relive it as if it were just yesterday that is took place.
I love Winnie the Pooh as well, and his quote is something that always makes me smile. I actually have Winnie the Pooh tatooed on my right ankle. I smile everytime I look down. Yes I do.
Thank you for sharing today sweet friend. I am so tickled to be your newest follower. Many hugs and much love, Sherry
I love that quote from Winnie the Pooh.
