Thoughts

"Sometimes the best thing we can do for a person is remember them."

This thought just arose in my mind like truth rising up amongst mist. I don't know all that it means, or necessarily when it is true, but I feel that it holds something true and important. As though I simply have to experience the correct scenario and suddenly this thought will echo back upon me with all of the clarity and stark relativity that, at the present, I can only believe that it has.

Thoughts dawn on me like this sometimes. When I'm not thinking about anything really. Often when I'm listening to music that delicately twirls my brain into paths I would never have traversed. The thing is, I don't believe my mind invents things. I don't believe it's that clever or wise or fresh or old. It just...stumbles across things that already are. Perhaps they are truths that I've known and then forgotten. Perhaps they are God shedding some kind direction on my wandering soul. I'm grateful for the help.
