As I begin this memoir of my remembered things, I do so knowing that the past can never be reclaimed; it can only be evoked using the symbols of words. But my words, like all words, can only represent the reality of what has been; they cannot restore it. Some of these remembered things have come squawking in from the past like a flock of raucous crows; while others, more reserved, more subtle, more reticent, have come softly forward under cover of night to trouble my sleep with their images of the past. And even though I know that the past cannot be restored, altered, or corrected by mere human words, I know as well that these remembered things are the most certain, the most enduring, and the most informing of all our earthly possessions.Taken from the PrefaceOf Gravity and Grace Revisited- Tim Cronley
