Fireplace

I did notice this evening how wonderful the fire is in a fire place truly is. I did see one and look at the flames in this fireplace and for some reason I started to remember some of the great moments in my life when I was sitting by the fireplace through my years. The remembrance in my younger years of fun at one of my friends house. To when I was at some very tasty places that I sat by the fireplace to eat with friends. I remember when my son sat on my lap and I would read him a wonderful children book and he would fall a sleep. The fire place when I asked my wife to marry me and handed her a ring and the glow on face from the flames as she said yes how warm that felt. I do have some sad times as well around the fireplace. The news of a good friend passing on, in my early 20s. My explaining myself when things just was not right and then staring into the flames of a fireplace one time as a the news of a car crash that took the life of two friends. Their is so much into small things like a fireplace that so much can happen around that item that through the years can be around so much happiness and sadness, that we can forget how important these things can help us remember our life's as we remember the item like the fireplace.
