Imagine, if you will
a person, a man, whose memory functions very differently from most people. You say "car" and I do not see the generic or singular image representation. No, people like me are cursed with "film" memory. We see every car that has imprinted on our memory at high speed. The same is true for just about anything else we store in memory.
It is very difficult to try to represent this adequately. The film reference may not work properly for everyone. You could also imagine single images on flashcards, flipping by at an incredible speed.
Why do I bring this up? Well this little curse has me locked in an irritating loop. You see I keep thinking about this one woman. With a memory like mine, it is a curse. I still see her, images flashing by, even though we have not seen each for months. I care about her quite a bit, even now, but she chose someone else. I chose solitude after that. I guess silence is preferable at this point.
The truth is that I do not want anymore pictures, beautiful or hideous, in my head. I will have more, of course, I cannot avoid that. I simply do not want the pain involved with caring anymore. I have enough pain already.
