When someone asks you what the best day of your life is, can you remember it? It’s overwhelming, isn’t it? We are flooded with many bad and good memories in our past. Sometimes, because of the numerous memories that we enjoyed, we can’t even pick which one is the best. But, that’s fine. Sometimes we don’t have to choose one, too. Instead, you can pick as many good memories as you can, and make them the best ones you have.
About the Song “The Best Day”
Speaking of good memories, George Strait’s single “The Best Day” somewhat shows us that the best days of our lives don’t have to be a single memory only. In his song, the son’s best day of his life changes as he grew up. He at first says that going fishing and camping with his father was the best day of his life. When he became a teenager, he considered driving an old Corvette as the best day of his life. When he became a man, the day of his wedding was the best day of his life. Therefore, as we grow up the best days of our lives change too. Also, it doesn’t mean that the past memories are not good. It just means that more good memories have been added to our collection of beautiful memories.
