tumblrbot asked: WHAT IS YOUR EARLIEST HUMAN MEMORY?

wow… let’s see. i remember being in a stroller or chair, which was rare, on the lawn beside our house, facing west, we were in our 2nd home so i must have been 2 or 3… all these people were all around having a wonderful time, it was a beautiful day. i felt like it was all happening for me. i had that distinct thought, that this is all choreographed in precise timing to teach me something. everything showing up in their positions in a certain way at a certain time. every word spoken was edited for me. what nature and these people shared with me were gifts. i guess that’s how it feels to all babies, hopefully, everyone is showing you a great time, having fun with you and sharing so much love, unconditional happiness & generosity. it is contagious. i was really observing it all, noticing personalities for the first time i guess. my parents had fabulous parties. i told my mother about this, which is so far as i recall my earliest, she said this idea is very normal idea for any child, a phase. i always thought the lawn was a selfish memory, but looking back now, it was really nice. 

thanks for the question. btw, what’s yours?
