How 5 years ago when we thought we were posted there we were actually excited...yet now I'm totally bummed. How is that? But my perspective now is coming from 5 years on the west coast - not a whole life time in Ontario. <BR/><BR/>Can't wait to hear more about your thoughts on this one!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3817728686717244104.post-61122747918698607402008-05-13T19:12:00.000-07:002008-05-13T19:12:00.000-07:00A-men to that.

Great stuff. It reminds me of how when a police officer takes statements from witnesses of a car crash in an intersection, it is usually the case that absolutely nobody sees the same thing. It all depends on which corner you were standing on at the time of the crash. This is like your memories of the strawberry patch. Sounds like you and your dad were standing on different corners at the time.Carolynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04340061182737906221noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3817728686717244104.post-49337674647430999232008-05-13T12:13:00.000-07:002008-05-13T12:13:00.000-07:00Very good, deep, thought-provoking post.

My family has had similar disagreements over memories -- we usually end up laughing and agreeing to disagree when it happens. At least Sugar's childhood will be well photographically documented ;)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3817728686717244104.post-77503164900151313632008-05-13T08:34:00.000-07:002008-05-13T08:34:00.000-07:00memories- funny things!

I just recently had a simular experience, but there was video to prove that I was wrong! I still don't understand how my memories were so different than what really happened. I mean my memory was so clear and yet so wrong.

That it turned out being an argument and with all of you feeling resentment instead of all of you recognizing together "hey, we just remember it differently, colored by our own perspective" is so HUMAN. And being human can be such a pain. You know what's funny? My parents had a huge garden too, and my sister and I helped SOME, but not a great deal. And there was pressure and a few arguments with my parents over the helping, yet, now that all is said and done, I MISS that stinkin' garden, and all those lovely fresh vegetables, and would dearly LOVE one of my own. And oh, to have fresh strawberries... Sigh.Megan Cobbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14008925325073263825noreply@blogger.com
