In relation to memory - Silly question.

Postby Oleander000 » Sun Feb 11, 2018 6:08 pm

When the topic of a particular movie comes up knowing ive seen it but unable to think of any part of the movie let alone the theme, story line, or even the ending..Even if i just watched it.

For me it's like it's in a different compartment in my mind, and if I get the right kind of reminder, then I can link to that compartment and access the whole memory again. This happens with books, also.

Same here. The only thing I know is if I liked the movie or not... I have to watch it a second or a third time to remember small parts of it and maybe be able to talk about it.

I'd be interested to learn if you know or find out that certain events like watching movies are carried out by a different alter. We started looking into this and found certain things we find ourself doing are primarily due to a specific alter, possibly fronting, possibly influencing the host(s).

We've mostly been co-conscious for many years so if we did something frequently, we assumed we must be interested. We started getting suspicious when John noticed he was kind of bored with some of the things we frequently looked at, like tarot.
