Saturday... Memories ... There are different opinions about whether we need them. Some people believe that it is not necessary to immerse oneself in memories, but to live only in the present, to look only to the future. Others are stuck in the past, living with memories and only memories. I always choose the middle ground. We have different periods in our life. And then memories are need , as well as active actions. Sometimes memories heal our tired souls when we don't want to do anything. But, in my opinion, the main task of memories is to inspire us to new achievements, to awaken nice nostalgia for travel, to give energy for work, to draw useful conclusions that sometimes come after many years ... You can add to this list in your head :)
The idea to create #saturdaymemories came to me about a year ago, when my phone refused to work, shouted, blunted and asked for help to clear his memory! But you know how it happens, we delete a few photos and then calm down. And then it only worked as a tag. But I noticed that some people liked the idea, and they started to support it. Usually these are people like me, who have traveled a lot, led an active lifestyle and have a habit of taking pictures ))) And then I decided to create a community Saturday Memories to make it a useful habit: every Friday you can clean your Google archive photos to remember interesting events that you may not have had time to tell, or because of lack of time wrote very little! A lot of photos left that you did not show here and now there is an opportunity. The main thing: write interesting memories not only to you, but also to the pleasure of your readers!
So, today, once again, I want to run with joy, gratitude and a light touch of sadness through these wonderful unforgettable moments of my life, which passed in my native village Rokytne in Ukraine, which was truly a place of strength ... There were so many of my springs, summers and autumns! Each photo seems to tell me the story of my life. Fascinating sunsets behind the forest, where I went in the evening.
These are the landscapes dear to my heart, which are beautiful in different ways every season. My children grew up here and there were moments when we hugged in the wheat field to share our feelings with each other!
I remember our "round-the-world" trips around the village of Rokytne, among the wild flowers. When we got tired, we sat on the hot summer ground, inhaling the aroma of mown grass.
As well as our mushroom treks are our unique finds.
This village has extremely clean air, many medicinal herbs, wild berries such as raspberries and strawberries. It is like a pearl, has preserved its unique beauty near the city.
And berry breakfast in the yard under a walnut tree.
Every day this village gave us a sea of new impressions, surprised us with its unique colorful flowers. A field of golden yarrow and an insect on a blue chicory flower!
Every year we walked this road for three kilometers, enjoying the mountain forest nature. And a few years ago a wonderful wooden house appeared here - it gave me inspiration on the way to my dream of having a house!
It was the last fall of 2018 when my joy in this place was unfading!
In the life of every person there comes a time when life is divided into two parts: when his parents are alive and then they are gone! This place will forever be the most expensive place on the planet Earth - there is a place on the mountain in memory of my parents ...
We have so little time in our lives to reminisce, but when we have free time, we enjoy looking at photos of past events. And here we remember wonderful moments again, and we understand that we didn't show these photos and didn't tell about it. Saturday can be a wonderful day when we have more time to write about such events.
Share with us your wonderful family holidays, trips to wonderful places, if you did not have time to tell about it when it happened, or you want to tell in more detail about your impressions and emotions that you felt there!
So see you next Saturday 😀 in the SaturdayMemories community. I'm looking forward to your unforgettable memories!
