Pastor’s blog 8/23/10 Memories?
August 23, 2010
I have just received a request from Connie Russell (Lagasse) to be my friend on Facebook. Who is Connie Russell you may ask? My answer is that is a good question as I don’t recall her by her married or maiden name. She graduated from Lisbon High School in 1970. I graduated in 1968 yet I can’t place her. You see my memory just isn’t that good. I am often surprised on Facebook by requests for friendship through that medium by High School mates I can’t recall. I wonder if it is age or just a poor memory. The other night I was playing a memory game with friends. The object of the game is to look at a picture for 30 seconds and then answer some questions about the picture. I failed miserably in trying to recall details. Memory is an illusive thing isn’t it? Why can I remember baseball statistics, Elvis trivia, old songs, phone numbers, sermons etc. yet have such a poor memory when it comes to people in my distant past. Oh I have to go now I just remembered I have a visit scheduled.
