Often I find myself at a meal and I savor the last bite as if to embed it in my memory: the last bite of grandma's coffee cake or Sal's bread pudding with whiskey sauce, the last salty Pacific oyster, the last sip of that fine martini (the one where the shaker was shown the vermouth bottle, but that is all), the last of the tuna sashimi. <BR/><BR/>Further, is this different then visual recall -- capturing the moment so you won't forget the van sliding door falling off in a parking lot in Idaho; or a sensory recall, the last floating moment in the bay in St. Johns flat on your back, head in the water, a reality, but virtual, saline isolation tank. <BR/><BR/>Do we cling on to these sensual memories hoping for repetition or hoping for conversion?<BR/><BR/>I am not sure. As for me, they cling like an overfilled glass -- my memories are like surface tension -- overflowing but hanging on. <BR/><BR/>A readerSarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10096957955735710186noreply@blogger.com
