Everywhere in my house are these little things that have meanings and make me think of great memories.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I always want objects in my home that have a connection to me or something I've loved. It's still stuff, but it's stuff that has meaning.
Some of the things that have been the most meaningful to me have been experiences I've shared with my family.
My memory is basically visual: that's what I remember, rooms and landscapes. What I do not remember are what the people in these room were telling me. I never see letters or sentences when I write or read, but only the images they produce.
I always remember my childhood house with happy memories. There was a beautiful garden, and outside my bedroom window was a jasmine vine which would open in the evenings, giving off a divine scent.
My grandmother's apartment had significance for me, even as a child, and I was fascinated by that world that was disappearing.
What makes things memorable is that they are meaningful, significant, colorful.
Fond memory brings the light of other days around me.
Your memories from your early childhood seem to have such purchase on your emotions. They are so concrete.
I just have beautiful memories of what has happened in my life.
My memories are inside me - they're not things or a place - I can take them anywhere.
