Music

Does anyone else get strong recollection or the delving of memories whenever you hear a song on the radio. Some of these memories are so strong that I can feel the feelings I felt then, even sometimes remember the aroma of the air around me at the time. It's weird, but somehow fantastic.

I can give a for instance, cause once the song fades away, the memory does too. But suffice it to say, that a lot of Rascal Flatt's first album does just that. It conjures up memories of a summer gone by--and meeting some of my friends which would have the biggest influence of my life. Babette the song "Moving On" always makes me think of how we held on to our friendship and moved on with certain aspects of our lives, how we continue to build our friendship and also grow. I can smell that funky cigar that Christopher (was that his name) would smoke between lectures.

It's funny how little things like this tap certain areas of our brain and conjure up such strong images and memories.
