Memories Remembered

Isn't it interesting how some memories, however brief, come fleetingly back to the mind repeatedly?

One for example which just struck me:
I was a little kid, doing kid stuff in the back yard, and my dad came out to do some garden work. (51st ave, backyard.) He told me "I can hold this bucket up-side-down over my head with water and not get wet." I was so skeptical and naieve to the world. He swong the 5-gallon bucket over his head, half full of water, and of course, with centrifical force, no water came out.

Discovery, enlightenment, learning how tricky words can be used to express truths of different meanings. I'd like to think that this seemingly inconsequential time and experience was a turning point in my mental life.
A good memory. Sort of makes my soul churn. How far we've all come...

A reminiscent-esque song to go with it: The Calling - Wherever You Will Go.
"If I could, and I would, I'll go wherever you will go. Way up high, or down low, I'll go wherever you will go."
