  • Map Memory Library

    Recently, over several days, I have spent time in the past. I often think of the past or memories like a personal library. It is something that periodically, we need to visit. While there we need to wander the aisles, pick up a book, and read a few lines. At the end of our visit, we walk away refreshed. But most importantly, we walk away with a kind of map, showing us how points in the past are consistent with current directions.
