Rivers of Memory

Hooking the little trout at Karen's Pool on Starlight Creek after all these years made me yearn again not for how my memory has shaped and reshaped that moment on this pool when I hooked my first trout but for the original experience itself, just that moment of pure undiluted excitement and joy and wonder, that moment of perfect magic and mystery, that mix of exhilaration and exaltation that washed over me as that first trout hauled me into wildness, not as a thought or idea, but as a feeling, the way of things as they are. — from Rivers of Memory
