I Don’t Remember…

I don’t remember my mother touching me when I was a baby, caring for me and telling me that she loved me.
I don’t remember many details from my early childhood.
Maybe because there were so few?
I don’t remember much about my father—him playing with me or taking care of me.

I don’t remember being abused… physically.
I don’t remember any violence. A good thing!
I don’t remember them ever fighting. Did they argue at all? Is it a good or bad thing?

I don’t remember how my step-dad was taken to the hospital. To my surprise I slept like a baby that night and missed it. I wish… I did remember that. I wanted to say goodbye to him and was never given that chance to do so… He died the next morning. 🕯️

I don’t remember why and when I have decided to worry so much about the way I look, if I am too fat, too skinny or just right. What caused it? Maybe if I knew that it would be easier to fix it. Just like turning the “ON and OFF” switch.

I don’t remember what made me fall in love with my older children’s father. Was it the lock of faith that I could find anyone better and the belief that I need someone to be happy?

I DON’T REMEMBER… a few simple words which can inspire you to look deep within yourself, to start a conversation with yourself about your life—and about you as a person—and which have the power to change your life for a BETTER!

What don’t YOU remember… ?

    Hi Karina,
    Beautiful thoughts of moments of the past. I have a question, in the title “I don’t remember.” Just curious is the words in the line, I don’t remember what made me fall in love, etc. Was it the lock of faith? OR lack of faith that I could find anyone, etc.
    Just checking dear Karina.

      Vernon,
      You should be an English Teacher. It seems I have made a mistake in the post... I am still learning.
      As for title. I like to FLOW WRITE and this was a suggested prompt, which I likes.
      You might be amazed what comes to your mind when you have no time to think about it.
      Our subconscious mind holds a lot of informations (memories) we might not be aware of. The flow writing can help bring it back. Thank you Vernon!
