Gifts To Get For Stroke Patients

A moment for the memory of a moment


A light, a smell, a color, an environment, a noise: the memories pervade you.
starting from the ends of the body to concentrate in one place: the stomach, throat, heart.
And suddenly his eyes fill with tears and a shiver goes up the neck to the tip of the hair.

is a moment, I do not understand ...
are at the station, stop at a track, waiting for the train. I do not know what has triggered the memory, maybe the light of a particular evening in late summer, perhaps not consciously perceive a smell, a color that I see, not hear a noise.

I see it clear in my mind, the memory is so clear that for that split second I went back to that place. A subway station in Berlin Kreuzberg near the station to my apartment. Gray, a bit 'gloomy ... but fascinating for me.

And remember, however brief, brings me back to a vivid feeling of freedom and life.

dl In a dark subway station in Berlin, one day, for a moment, I felt powerful, scared, free and unconscious. In a different place, ready for a new adventure, determined to conquer my corner, thirsty for knowledge, eager to get in touch with that world, I felt my life.

The abbondonato remember me as I took it, suddenly, leaving behind his eyes moist, the wake of a thrill and the imminent desire to experience that feeling again.
