" Today's little moments, become tomorrow's precious memories "
" Yesterday is a memory, tomorrow is a mystery and today is a gift which is why it is called the present. What the caterpillar perceives is the end; to the butterfly is just the beginning. Everything that has a beginning has an ending, making your peace with that and all will be well "
" We do not remember days, we remember moments "
Just looking at these pictures of yesterday (the year 2007) tend to bring back fond memories of my good old days in travelling ......... my golden years, my travel days & the best moments of my life !
Courage was very much with me when I took on this backpacking visit to the Himalayas in northern India in 2007 ...... nothing venture nothing gain !
