Forgetting
How is your memory? I could forget my car keys if it were possible to drive off without them….
I can go to the store to buy three things and come home with two, out of those two, one may or may not be correct. On other days I do better and both will be the right items….
As funny as this may sound, I don’t remember if this problem was as prevalent when I was younger. But I would like to believe it was not!
I forget birthdays and remembering dates of things in the past is beyond me.
How can memory be so fickle? To leave me just when I need it the most? What was I saying? Luckily I am not that bad.
Have you ever “lost” a word? I frequently do, especially when speaking, I can lose the right word at just the right time, only to find it hours later when I no longer require its presence!
Memory, it’s a selective beast, and usually it has escaped its cage!
