This is beautiful. To look at times of the past and reflect on them whether good or bad, it is a good way to learn and grow along with connecting with family.
I especially love the last line. It definitely fits in with the idea that it isn't where or when something happens, it's who it's with that matter's most. Reminds me of a little quote by someone whom I forgot the name of, but,
"Live for the nights you can't remember with the friends you'll never forget."

Warm and plausible, well done.
