I think its not just memory, but point of view. <br /><br />We collect differently the sense memory of any moment. And memory then isn't just about the image, recalled, but about a period of growth development and those senses and levels of mind/life absorbed: smell, touch, taste, sight, the rhythms of sound etc... and what occupies one person in the room may not occupy the others in such a powerful way. <br /><br />Then there is voice: modes of telling; ways of saying--the craft a narrative chooses to emerge through; its form. The "solitude" we love and enter, isn't only in the room, it is inside us.<br /><br />These powers are the timber of the fire we dance within and also sit around, listening, witnessing each to each. <br /><br />etc...<br /><br />even children own these forms, (i think), uniquely. mansuetudehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03805383049085040581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23991882.post-43829349717183065012013-04-10T11:42:22.812-04:002013-04-10T11:42:22.812-04:00This is so poignant and beautiful.

I was thinking recently about the role of involuntary memories (both good and bad thoughts that come to mind un-asked for) but this is a fine, reflective memory.
