Question

in your mind’s eys?

Answer 1

Saying goodbye to my dad in 1964 and giving him a kiss. A few days later I was told that he had been found dead. It's as clear as though it happened yesterday.

Answer 2

In January 1963 I stood in the snow at a bus stop in Bewdley, Worcestershire about to take my last journey into a nearby town before leaving to live in Africa. I can still in my mind, see the houses opposite, the way the road curved down the hill, the bare trees and the stone walls of the gardens behind me. I have not been back there since my return to England last year, but as I have been told that the road is exactly the same, there is no need.

Answer 3

A picture is more or less like a gift. There are faint differences in presents v.s gifts. A present is something that someone gives to another person of which the giver knew that the person to receive it had requested it. Where as a gift is something that the giver gives to the receiver because the giver prehaps thought that the recipient could use it or just appricate it.

Pictures in my opinion are a gift to mankind. The reason why they hold so much importance and value to most of us is that they allow us to reflect, recall and remember. This can be especially important for many of us who are getting older in age. Pictures just as an art form gives us recollection of what our past looked like. What was happening at that present time and moment. Pictures hold our history. The mind can not contain everything, or least it has a hard time just performing it's duty in the present, so things and stuff like pictures helps us remember, unfortunately not all good things prehaps, but nonetheless they help us recall. And sometimes help us make life decissions as to whether or not you liked visiting a specific place, because the picture of that time will toggle some memory of what might have taken place. And not only things like that, but pictures help you to remember whom you have grown up to be.

I use to be able to recall in my mind's eye things that happend last year, five years to ten years ago, but as I become older and more added responsibility for family, self and the world at large as to my place in it I find that sometimes remembering what happend ten seconds ago, let alone yesterday can be hectic.

Answer 4

The first goal in the FA cup final 1984. I was right behind the goal and if I close my eyes I can see it perfectly in every detail. I n particular I can see the net bulging about half way up as the ball hit the back of it.

The only problem is that in videos of the goal it didn't happen how I can clearly see it!

Answer 5

When I was 3 years old back in 1957 I remember sitting in the funeral directors waiting room as mum arranged my Grans funeral. I can still see a tall dark man with a top hat in his hands looking down at me. I can also still see the black horses and hearse. In the same year my kid sister was born at home, I can still see a woman in a uniform coming into the house with a big black bag and my older sisters dragging me away from mums bedroom. They told me I was getting a new baby sister or brother, all my childhood I thought babies came in big black bags.

Answer 6

A remember a party my parents threw when I was very young. My best friend and I were running a circuit around the back yard. It was dusk. Every time we past the gray-green pile of grass clippings in the corner we would announce our full names, first middle and last. We never tired. It was grand.

I started working in a hospital 15 years ago. I remeber not long after I started, seeing one of the staff (he was sitting in a wheelchair in front of the tv - it was not his wheel chair!)

Answer 8

If I were to choose one moment from my childhood, it would be this:

It was mid-winter, and the snow was thick on the ground and falling heavily from above.

My mother was making dinner. i was sent out to look for my brothers and bring them home. I thought, as I looked outside, "Oh no!"

I put amy coat on and went slowly outside to the darkness. At the bottom of our street, I looked and and saw two shadowy figures coming towards me. I couldn'r make out who they were, but I thought it might have been too much to hope that they were my brothers, but they were. It's this image of them coming towards me out of the gloom that I can see. I was maybe 8 or 9.

Answer 9

I remember my mom and my brother sitting in the front seat of a big car. A green car, with a bench seat. My twin brother was standing up, and we were parked at what I later discovered was UCLA where my dad worked and went to school. I remember my mom and dad had words, loud ones...and then my mom put her arm in front of my twin brother, who was still standing...and I jumped up to look at my daddy in the little bitty window, and cried out...."DA-DDY!!!" I remember my my hollered my first and my middle name and told me to sit down NOW! I was sobbing. My dad just stood there...I wouldn't have wanted to take a picture of that...But I remember it clearly. I know I wasn't even 4 y/o.

Answer 10

The moment I saw for the first time my daughter when she was born. It is a perfect clear image of her seeing me with her big, dark brown, beautiful eyes.
