Earliest memory
|
|
We have to be careful here, because as newborns, our brain is incapable of stringing together a coherent timeline based memory.
My x wife and I, were having a conversation with our 3 year old daughter (soon to be 27 = wow) and we were talking about things and stuff, like when she was born. She was saying how mummy was there and it was bright and doctor ******, was there and was loud. (It was a tricky birth, and I wasn't there).
Ask my girl now, and she doesn't remember it at all.
My first memory (and I cling to it, because I first explained it to my parents surprise when I was around 10), without any prompting was this...
I was in a dark room, in my Mums parents flat, there was a party in the next room, in Liverpool England. My brother , who I obviously recognised, because I'd spent the previous six months of my life in his company, came in to the room, he was somewhat less than 2 years old. I was in one of those old style 4 wheel prams. He grabbed onto the handle bars and - flip - I ended up on the floor.
I remember Mum picking me up, my brother crying, being carried in to the party room (must have been a great party), seeing faces - coo coos etc. I wasn't that badly hurt obviously.
Clear as day, even though it was night (I knew that much).
