To some, their school days, or those at university. were the best days of their lives. When they were young. Others remember (or plan) their wedding to be the most amazing day to remember. To me, that always sounded quite sad. If your school days were the best of your life, it's only downhill from there. And if your wedding is the best day of your life, your marriage will not make you happier. Do you really think you can last that long on the happiness found on one day?

No, although I had lots of fun in school, and our wedding was beautiful, I really hope the best is yet to come. I don't want to relive the past, I want to create new memories.

Is your best yet to come?

### Poésie de la vie

Maybe you can make new memories under water next time you're traveling. But... beware of the beautiful monsters you may find.

Maluku Monsters
---------------

It is a strange world underwater. It gets even stranger when venturing beneath the placid waters of the bay of Ambon. Read more here: https://billmcdavid.wordpress.com/2016/01/23/muckin-around-in-maluku/
