RE: A REAL JEWEL

in #women7 years ago

Wow, thanks for sharing this piece. Is the newspaper cutting still in good shape for a photo?

I never had an experience of interacting my with grandmas, both my mom's and my dad's side of the family, because both of them passed on before I came about. However, I have this very clear memory of seeing my mom's mom before, right down to the chair she liked to sit on outside the house door, by the road, so she could see the cars went by. Till today, I never could understand that scene, because it's too vivid for a fantasy, but too unrealistic to be a memory.

Sort:  

The clipping is in somewhat acceptable shape for a photo — however, the printing from the reverse page shows through, making the text of the article somewhat difficult to read. Also, I didn't include a photo of the clipping, itself, because the article mentions the family name as well as the name of the very tiny home town, so I opted for privacy by removing those details when I typed the article here.

That is an extremely interesting thing you shared, about the vision of your grandmother in her chair outside the door, especially since she passed before you were born. I have heard some people mention a thing called "genetic memory," where it is theorized that some primal memories can be passed to descendants, somehow, through genes. If such really exists, it might explain such a vision. We humans are such complex organisms that science and psychology are only beginning to understand how our minds and bodies truly work. Thank you for sharing that!
