Each day, if you are lucky,
New knowledge is gained,
A new fact added to the store
That is in your brain.
The thing that worries me though
Is that at my age,
The brain is full
So when a new piece of knowledge,
is assimilated,
What piece falls off the other end?

Thank you.

Absolutely Sir – I cannot disagree.
Bits of my memory drop out all the time;
Wish it were selective, but no, it’s scrappy.
It occurs just when coherence should be prime…….
So true Dave, we never know which bits will go missing form our memory..

Perfectly understandable Fred; 'ave a cuppa tea - Its wot I do when I'm getting nowhere....

Do our heads - brains - get bigger (humbly so, not big-headed) with each piece of info?
And does it depend where our brains are? They might be in our....... for some folk. A swoon comes on, and Fido rescues me! lol.
No the brain just fills up and needs t make room by throwing bits of memory away Orchi.
Andy
The process may not be selective but why does it seem that what falls off is just what I need next, and as of yet none of the bad memories have dropped off. Nice write
Very true soren, it is the bits of memory that we want that seem to go missing.
