@TheBakingSlave 7 лет назад

I have kind of an interesting question, since you were blind from birth you have never seen anything in the world. I just wonder how that alters how you form memories and "see" things in your mind. Its interesting because we look at things and associate them with other things so when we aren't actively looking at them we can "imagine" them. It would be interesting to know how he "imagines" things.

@NorokVokun 7 лет назад

@IfYouMeetAWolf 7 лет назад

I guess with all of the other senses, like when you can smell a certain perfume or mama's lasagne and it takes you back to when you were a kid :)

@MrKosobi 7 лет назад

It's not that hard to imagine actually. Just close your eyes for 20 minutes and try to do some stuff, talk to your friend, take a shower, DO NOT open your eyes for entirety of that 20 minutes. And there you go, your own memory deprived of visual impressions.

I loved her much and miss her. Your stories bring back so many great memories of her. She had a great sense of humor, like you do. She just played the cards she was dealt....but popped up that Joker whenever possible. Love you Tommy.
