In age


Granted, my fading eyesight is becoming more and more a problem. But if I could bring back anything which has faded away over the last few years, I'd ask for my sense of smell.

All too often in my youth I recall taking moments and enjoying a big lungfull of air. And in doing that simple act I made the aroma my anchor to that place and time.

Many times in my day now I'll do that and recall a trace of that moment. My memories are difficult to recall on my own, I need all the help I can get.
