And yet the writing of the experience helps to re-enter it somehow and to invite others to share it. There is only living it, only experience, but words – no matter how inadequate for the task – can renew some of the emotion, the exhilaration of living into such moments. They can and do invite others to experience, to live, to see such things with their own sense of connection and depth. And journals and blog posts and photos can remind us of what we do not remember. They cannot take us there again – no setting foot in the same stream – but they preserve for our future what would otherwise be lost. esseffbee.blogspot.com
