The circle makers

I'm reading a book by Mark Batterson and I was taken by one line:  "in the words of Harriet Doerr 'One of the best things about aging is being able to watch imagination overtake memory"!  She wrote her first book when she was 74 and it won the National Book Award!   I try diligently to keep striving!  I like to visit the past but I do not want to take up residence there!
