What Your Youngest Memories Reveal About You
#1
Do you remember the best moments, or the worst?

I read, Research has indicated that most people’s earliest memories, on average, date back to when they were 3-1/2 years old,  many starting around 6. Researchers agree that few experiences before age 6 become lifelong memories.

Early memories vary widely in content: Playing activities, injuries, and transitions (such as moving or changing schools) can all become events remembered into adulthood

Why certain experiences are remembered for a lifetime, while so many more are not, is unclear.
Many childhood memories recalled by adults are often of emotional event.
A Special Birthday, serious sickness, or even a Broken arm, can be remembered.

 
The childhood memories we choose to hold on to reveal aspects of what we consider important, and who we are.  The memories-as-processed are integrated into the evolving, dynamic person of the individual who retains and interprets life’s happenings.

We didn’t get to choose the childhood we were given, but we can choose what to do with the events of our childhood memories.

SO WHAT ARE SOME OF YOUR EARLIEST MEMORIES AS A CHILD?
WERE THEY GOOD OR BAD?
