I am like you then, barely any memories from my youth. Though even in my young adulthood I think I was just skimming along, blocking out things as I found them unpleasant. Oh they do pop up every once in a while, much to my distress with some of the memories. Oh well, what's done is done.

I sometimes marvel at how much others can recall from say, 4-8 years old, and as far as I know, they didn't suffer any unusual treatment or abuses when they were little. So we have this issue of blocking out that which hurt us, plus it inhibits the formation and growth of the Adult personality. Which really is a sad thing because we really needed to be able to think and grow for ourselves when we should have. If only for the simple fact it is a hell of a lot easier to do it when you're 3-5 years old than a middle-aged chick. Much like how little kids figure out the VCR controls! LOL!

Dear Sara,

I don't remember that part of my life. Not even a minute of it, nothing. It's like I have never been a small child.

The parts I sometime do remember is when I'm much older but even these, are rare in my mind.

(((((((((((((((((((Sara))))))))))))))))))

Thank you for caring!
