Memory Loss

Have you ever thought about  the memories you have  in the back of your mind of a movie you saw in your past? On the other hand do you remember the bad movies from the past you don't want to remember? From when the time we were allowed to go to a movie on a Saturday matinee,  as we were to young to be allowed to go to a movie at night. Most of the time  we have  enjoyed ourselves  when we went to a movie. We were independent and had a feeling we were grown up. In our lives at an early age, we  started to feel our character changing. We started to shape it to reflect the decision stage of our lives. The feeling that we were allowed to make a choice at our age (13).

As I am 58 now, it is getting increasingly hard to remember a lot of my memories at that age. Not sure if this is part of getting older, or a sign of early dementia caused by a latter stage from me having Parkinson Disease. For a lot of people, this is a stage of short term dementia that developed. You can do many things to enhance the capability of remembering things, especially the early ages. I never would of thought, that I would lose my memory, because I am a very technical individual as well as being intuitive.

The reason  I picked Memory loss, is because as we get older, we begin to not remembering things of our early childhood. We have all felt at a point of losing the ability to remember. It's not something that we have control of, but we can delay it thou. Everyone as we get older goes threw a stage of  memory loss. Some early, and some later in life. It is different in all of us. People do not have a choice on this issue. The ability to function from an earlier stage of life varies as we get old.

Most of the time we are in control to make a choice on things we have a grasp of. I have to accept that view. Getting older does not have to mean that we function less.
When they say we should age graciously, to me that means I should function on the capabilities I am at that point of  life and the age we are. Most thoughts that people remember, are the good parts of their lives, and the bad memories we don't want to. Memory loss is something we all go threw in life and depends on how much we do lose, will reflect most of the time the age we are .
