Remember Everything

I opened for my lover
but my lover had left; he was gone.
My heart sank at his departure.
I looked for him but did not find him,
I called him but he did not answer.
Song of Songs 5:6

We can’t feel saddened over the loss of those we love without first remembering the joy of loving them.  The real sadness would have been never having had them in our lives at all.  Remembering is a journey the heart takes, back into a time that was, and our thoughts are the only tickets needed to ride. We who have truly loved are blessed.

Place me like a seal over your heart,
like a seal on you arm;
for love is so strong as death,
its jealousy unyielding as the grave.
It burns like blazing fire,
like a mighty flame.

Many waters cannot quench love;
rivers cannot wash it away.
If one were to give
all the wealth of his house for love,
it would be utterly scorned.
Song of Songs 8:6-7

Remember everything.

We will remember you love more than wine.
Song of Songs. 1:4e
