I forget to do things.
I forget close family members names.
I even forget how to add sometimes.
It is so frustrating!

Sometimes all it takes is a scent to take us back in time. We suddenly remember standing on the sidewalk at twilight, the rays of sun tucking themselves in for the night. It had been an interesting day, and now we are walking down the street.
Of course the person walking down the street was me. The ‘we’ was me and my friend…..
Whose name was….
Honestly, how frustrating! I can’t remember one of my best friend’s name from high school. I do know she probably saved my life that night, as I stumbled out into the street due to medication overdose. So why isn’t I can’t remember her name? The night is etched into my brain, but I can’t remember a friend I’ve had for years?
It’s times like this I love Facebook. (It’s Sarah, btw).
So what do you do when it isn’t something you can look up? Or by the time you say the wrong thing, you have already remembered the correct one?
When the brain fails, it causes a lot of frustration. It’s a struggle to feel like we can live a fulfilled life. Unfortunately, Get free updates![/cs_text][x_author title=”Rachael Stout” author_id=””][/cs_column][/cs_row][/cs_section]
