As some of you know, my mother passed away last week. I don't intend on this being a thread to express condolances but rather one where we talk about how to keep memories alive, or how to cement them in our minds to live with us forever.
I have said that I worked hard to remember my dad's voice ( he died in 2002) . I can clearly see me opening the door each month when they visited, him walking in, giving me a big hug and saying "Hello love"
Recently, I have begun writing memoirs for my children. nothing fancy. Just notes written quickly, and so quite brief - maybe just a page an evening. It's proven quite fun as each evening brings back events I had long forgotten, and gives me ideas for the next one. And, simple as it is, I think the children will always enjoy having it. I might even begin incorporating old photos, get some use out of them - and photos will be far more interesting for the kids if they have a context for them.
Greetings, Question: After many years of
purposly repressing memories of
life, and excellently trained to do so,
have i compromised my future. In
the sense that now that life is better,
i cant stop repressing all but the
most crucial of things :L Is there
treatment for this, home made or
professional?
Any tricks to eliminate this?
