I am going to put Milas request and this one together...I have said, and my husband has said, if we were to die today, we would be satisfied with our lives because of our children. There were are parts of the last 29 years of behavior and money and wrong decisions, but both of or children turned out fine and loving and expressive. I too remember holding my children when they were infants...what is it about child asleep? I now remind myself to hug and touch my 17 year old, because he will soon be gone, off in his own world, too, like his brother. Another time of grief and at the same time fond memories.
-s> The one memory I would want to take with me is of snuggling with my son. His warm, soft little body molded against mine. I would not want to forget loving and being loved that completely.

The premise is that when you die, you have a week to choose one memory that you will take with you into your afterlife -- and just one. Of course, this has been very thought provoking. What memory would I take? What memory would you take? A part of me wants to protest -- that my life has been so much hell, that the memory is still to come. Anyway, just something I have been mulling over. If you are one who doesn't mind subtitles, I would recommend this movie.
