perfection encapsulated

Maybe the best memories in life simply cannot be captured in their full glory.

They are the moments that are magical at the very instant they happen,
and yet when you try to revisit them after they've passed, it isn't quite the same anymore.
Because that's what moments are: brief, exact points in time.
And just like how you can never recreate perfection,
you might try to recall the details, to create the picture in your mind, to put them into words, but find that it's near impossible to relive them.

All you can get are wisps of happiness that curl the ends of your mouth into a smile in the mere seconds that you are able to grasp them for.
