Actually? Everything you saw, touched, smelled, heard felt emotionally is recorded in your brain. Research was done years ago before the advent of wonder drugs to control epilepsy, on the human brain. The patient was emobilized by drugs and the cortex was exposed and mild electrical shocks were administered to various places on the cortex. The patients, being awake, reported being able to see, hear, feel different episodes that happened years before. What the doctor was actually trying to do was to stop seizures in these patients, but he also discovered that the brain saves everything.
Considering your memory from infancy, in the book I recently finished the author talked about a patient's recurring dream which was beginning to disturb her. She reported that she was being smothered by these great big, soft swirling blobs that would hang above her. LOL! Well maybe it wasn't funny in the dream, but man, I'll never look at another large breasted woman with kids the same ever again. That's right, they figured since her mother was a rather large woman in that area, the swirling white orbs were her breasts as this woman had been breastfed right from birth. In addition, her mother also tended to be a bit brusque with the breastfeeding sessions, and so making an impression on her baby that wasn't really the most positive. Go figure.
