Memory is a funny thing.


I actually have a memory of this. From when I was less than a year old. I remember pulling these plants off and down on the floor. I don't remember why I did or what I was trying to accomplish but I have a memory of doing this. And I can't remember so many other things you would think I could. Memory is a strange thing.

Anne,


Thanks but don't worry about me. I am at peace with it and ready to go when the Good Lord wants me. Russ

I suspect the reaction you got from your mom was enough to make you remember. No reason to pull down. At 1 don’t need a reason. Probably surprised you as much as your mom.

I just remember a kind of joy of destruction. I had no reason to do it other than to see what happened. And I don't recall my mother making a big deal about it other than saying something like "no, we don't do that".

I have always had a vivid memory of the first few minutes after my birth. I felt like I was in a freezer and I REALLY wanted them to take that cold thing off of my chest (The stethoscope). I have always had some other recollections from my early years; but those first few moments have always stood out more than anything else.
