Indeed, Valerie. I’m so glad I’m not her.

I saw a clip of that woman on the web. I can't remember yesterday too much and she can go back for years. I'm thankful that I can forget the pain of some things. What a blessing. Naturals last blog post..More of the Ugly

That is so true, Swubird. And also, when you start to worry about it, you can remember even less. It can be very elusive.

It’s something most people give very little thought to when it’s working properly, but it’s essential that it manages our filing system properly or we simply can’t function.

Jay: Memory is such a confusing thing. Oftentimes we remember what we'd rather forget, and we forget want we'd like to remember. Strange. The Queen and I forgotten so many movies that running joke in out house is, What movie shall we watch over tonight? Interesting post. Have a nice day. Swubirds last blog post..MY LAST FIGHT

Memories are funny things – as is life. I just published a post on memories myself! I notice that memories seem to fall into two categories – the good and the bad. Lucky for me, most of my childhood memories fall into the good category. I don’t seem to remember many bad memories – just vague memories of being lost on a beach and puking on my grandparents carpet after a head injury. Luckily, the carpet was a chaotic mixture of oranges, browns, reds and blues, and you couldn’t really see the vomit……I would hate to lose all my good memories.

Welcome, Momma – and thanks for the compliment! Yours is pretty good, too!

Indeed, I wonder if she will go mad. It’s either that, or she learns to cope, I guess. It may depend on her life experiences. If nothing terrible happens to her, she will probably cope, but … the death of a child, a serious or traumatic accident, and who knows?

We can only hope nothing like that ever happens to her.

Thanks for visiting my blog and leaving a comment yesterday!

You have a nice blog with beautiful writing here.

I heard about the woman who remembers everything, and I can’t for the life of me imagine that! There are so many things we need to put out of our minds everyday. I imagine she’s very bad at meditating. I wonder if all that mind-clutter will someday drive her mad?

Peace – D

Ahahaha! Surely you jest! Hand over me drawers? Never!!

And Sweeney Todd isn’t even in there – because it’s in here, right by the TV, being as it’s the last one we watched.

‘I’ll come again when you have Judge on the menu … ‘

Grrrrr!

I don't know from Alzheimer's yet, thanks be to God, and I feel so for those who live with the dreaded thing. To guard against ever forgetting what I refer to as "the Johnniness of it all," however, I take my Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl -- and my pirate -- intravenously, thank you! For that reason I have happily forgotten how many times I've seen it ... but I will never forget the first time I saw it. That's because it changed my life. What a ship is ... what the Black Pearl really is ... is freedom. Uhm ... now, hand over the contents of that drawer and no one will get hurt! Just looking at the titles is making me slobber! There be the chest ... inside be the gold ... Jennys last blog post..Remember To Forget ... To Remember
