I was listening to my MP3 last night and enjoying the moment. A particular line in the song "Better than Me" by Hinder caught my attention and made me reflect on things.
" If there's one memory I don't want to lose.."
Suddenyl I was looking back on the things I did and happened in my life. I started to recount memories that I did not want to lose. I realized that the memory I did not want to lose is when the time my 3-year old niece told me she loves me. Here was the conversation the two of us had back then.
Niece: Do you love me?
Me: Of course I love you.
Niece: I love you too.
Me: Why do you love me?
Niece: Because you love me very much.
If ever all my memories would fade, I would really want to keep this particular memory of mine. How about you guys? What's the one memory you would never want to lose?

I guess mothers would really remember and treasure the moment they laid eyes on their children.

For me it would definitely be the day my daughter was born. I will never forget the first time I heard her crying and how fragile she felt when the doctor put her into my arms. She is 3 now and has grown so fast. My wife and I love her more than anything and that memory will be with me till the day I die.

A birth of a child is really a very endearing moment for parents. I believe you will have moer memories to be cherished with your daughter.

We never want to lose our memories. They hold the key to what makes us what we are today. One memory that i will always want to keep close to my heart is my wedding day. It is one day that truly brought joy and happiness to my heart and my life. The man i married is no longer with me and this is not by choice. I hold onto his memory and he lives on in my heart.@JOIEMARVIC (2335)

I guess every woman want to have a memorable wedding day. I am so happy to know that you were able to have a wedding day that was memorable enough to make your top list of the moments you would never ever want to forget in your life.

There were so many memories that can never be faded away for my mind. Maybe don't tell the best one, but can share the better one.
When I was in high school, according to the rules of our school, we should have a study at night from 6pm to 9pm. One time, the electricity is cuttd off suddently.Thus we only stopped study, but listened to my teacher's story. Several minutes latter, my classmate bought two candles for the convinence store. Lighted the candle on and gave me one for lighting. I was so moving and all of my classmates were so envious.
This was a moving memory that remembered forever. I am thankful to the boy up to the present.

I did not quite get your story, who was the boy and what made your classmates envy you? It's really nice to reflect on memories that we treasure the most. It makes us smile and lifts our spirits.

That was so sweet... I wonder if my boyfriend's fondest memory where the times the two of us were together. I hope so..

When I saw the title of your discussion, the first thing that came up to my mind is when my boyfriend and I stood and hugged for a very long time because it was when everything between us started. I really can't remember anything else right now. It's just that that moment really changed everything for me. Maybe some things aren't really for the best but everything changed.

I guess that particular memory of yours is something you really cherished that's why it was the first that came into your mind when you read my discussion. For me I had a lot of reflecting to do before I end up with that special memory of mine.

For now if my memories were to fade away i would like to remeber the day my boyfriend fist kissed me.
We were both at a lighthouse down at the marina, we went for a walk away from everybody while we were at the beach. We usually did that as friends though. And one day he sat on a rock and said to me that he wanted to do something but he was afrain to do it. I told him to do what he wanted (i knew he was going to kiss me deep down) and he kissed me. After i ask him why he was afraid to kiss me and he said he was afaid i was going to beat him up.
It was a very good memory, he is and will be my first boyfriend. The other guys in my past was just, well people who saw me as just another f€ck.
I was glad that he wasnt like that.
Nice topic, thanks for sharing :)

If there was one memory I dont want to lose, that would be the time when my husband and i first had a fight after getting married. That was 2 days after our marriage and then we fought. I dont want to lose that memory cause he was really humble at that time and he is no longer like that now. He is so full of pride already. I dont want to lose that memory so if time will come that he would have the chance to look into my memory, he would know how much it meant to me that he was like that before and not the kind of impatient that he is now.

I guess you should share this memory with your husband. Better yet ask him what his one most treasured memory that he would not want to lose. I guess you should communicate with him your "issue" of him being impatient now. HUsbands and wives should really need to have an open communication with each other to fix misunderstandings and differences they have. Thanks for sharing your fondest memory.
