Memories are just layers and layers of special moments.
They are powerful and sometimes all we have left... what once was an everyday occurrence becomes a treasured thing we welcome back into our thoughts as often as we can.
When my Dad started showing signs of Dementia, memories are often all I had to bring him back... especially music memories.
I treasured those memories then as much as I do now.
Memories swirl around our hearts and minds when we least expect them... while making a cuppa, hanging the washing or pulling weeds, they re-visit us like a gentle reminder rushing back of what was.
Memories of those we love, of homes we grew up in, childhood to adulthood to now... always growing and always collecting more memories.
This painting is titled after the Flume + Vera Blue song - Rushing Back
