MEMORIES
We give Memory its own life through Animism. Complete with its own set of senses, Memories become worlds, peopled and driven by agendas, conspiracies, desires, fears, beliefs, and hopes. Notice that once we have “made” a Memory, we only partially release it. We never stand fully outside it, until we become a spectator to it; at that point, it may cease to be.
Look at any event and the people involved and influenced by the event—those able to “make” a Memory of it. No two persons will “make” the same Memory. If the event is such that there are conquerors and the conquered, think of how different those Memories of that event will be. When a natural disaster rages, how different are the Memories of those who lost nothing and those who lost all?
How different is it in death when a parent loses the child, and the child loses the parent? Do you see that every event becomes animated by those “making” the Memory? For indeed, we do “make” Memories, as Co-Creators and Creators.
How skilled a Memory-Maker are you? When you review your life events, how many of your Memories are accurate portrayals of what happened—in terms of unbiased reporting (if such a thing exists)—and how many Memories are skewed according to your Beliefs, emotions, and personal interests? Can one “make” a Memory without skewing it? In all reality, no.
Think of a Memory you have made in your past that has changed as you have changed.
Think of Memory that has changed as your world has changed.
Think of a Memory that has changed as the person or circumstance around which the memory centers, has changed. Possibly, when you first made a Memory, you Believed certain things that you no longer Believe, or that are no longer true—and this requires you to review your Memory—and change it as appropriate to your newly acquired knowledge.
This is a sign of growth.
Have you visited a childhood place that you remembered being very large, tall, or threatening, only to find that your current perception is very different? You’ll find yourself returning to your Memories and recalibrating them, automatically. This is true for other conditions as well. Perhaps you judged someone harshly, and in recalibrating Memories from a greater vantage point, understand that their brusque guidance was meant to protect you, or later learn that you were not unloved by someone, but were in a condition yourself of being unable to open to love.
What are Memories, but stories that you have made? Memories change as you change them, as the world changes them. Try today to live your life so that tomorrow’s stories—tomorrow’s Memories—will be a sacred testament to Living Life Well.
