“Smell is a potent wizard that transports you across thousands of miles and all the years you have lived. The odors of fruits waft me to my southern home, to my childhood frolics in the peach orchard. Other odors, instantaneous and fleeting, cause my heart to dilate joyously or contract with remembered grief. Even as I think of smells, my nose is full of scents that start awake sweet memories of summers gone and ripening fields far away.”
Visiting my home town, taking a walk through the market place, this is when I took a deep breath and my memories wake up. That smell wraps me like a blanket of past, that day when I broke free and took all the coins I was saving to buy my first guitar. Another one when I have seen a friend and went to eat a big ice cream, it must be the first day of high school. We all have smells to unlock past and travel miles.
