****trigger for detail*****

Detail is important, I think, but I also think plenty of good work can get done without all the details being remembered or divulged. I don't remember lots of details anyway from most things, but a few experiences I do - so those I told in more detail. But even so what I seemed to remember best was not what was done so much outside of me as what I felt on the inside, the emotional imprint of the experience/memory, if that's clear. I don't remember my dad's expression or what all he may have said, but I do remember the anger. I don't precisely remember the feeling of the belt striking me, but I do remember my obstinate defiant determination to not make a single sound .... and I also remember the ache within me being greater than the pain of the welts, but that I had a certain pride too for withstanding the physical pain so well. Ah well...
We each remember differently ..... and maybe the exact details of the event aren't always so important as ensuring that you ARE dealing with the emotional imprint of the event ......
You don't have to put pressure on yourself to give or to remember details, stopdog, you can go at your pace and do what you feel ready, able, willing to do ..... not that I'm saying go easy or not push at all, but pacing yourself....
