Life unfolds one day at a time, just like this agave. Every day is only slightly different than the last. But over time, major events mark our lives. I can no longer remember the ordinary, average day, I only remember the events. I remember a traffic accident but not where I was going or why I was going there. I remember falling off a cliff, but not who I was with or how we got there. Whatever happens today will become the same spiraling pattern of events in our lives. We may remember the events, but not the day.
But sometimes I just remember the smell or sound with the events. I'm sure they were so impressive to me.
