Every time we remember something we have an opportunity to change the memory, It's why fish get bigger with every telling! When yer practicing thoughts come into your mind until you catch them and go back to your anchor. Because you are in a state of deep relaxation painful past experiences aren't so bad cause yer emotions are settled down and your view is temporarily clearer. We don't have a DVR in our brain, things work a lot different than that! Your brain is made up of different neural net systems, each specializing in it's own job and if ya get an injury other parts of the brain can remap to compensate, to say recover from a stroke. We have two different memory systems for the purposes of this discussions and I'll keep it simple.
We have semantic memory called an episodic memory system for events etc ( I don't quite agree with google here, but will bone up) and a separate somatic memory system or emotional memory and the two can be tightly bound in extremely stressful conditions that result in PTSD, and the very bravest of men with a heart are torn to pieces by it and many kill themselves, and these two memory systems linking because of stress are much of the cause. If a vet (like my nephew, who I helped, back from special forces in Afghanistan) hear a car back fire sometimes they will drop to the ground and shake in fear and sweat, they are back in Hell in there minds and anything can trigger it. Don't know much about PTSD and would like to talk to those who suffer and do a little home work and see if I can help some.
Mounds of disturbed dirt are a danger sign too, like the patch in my back yard, while Mike was staying here with me, PTSD is a bitch.
Some goggle fur ya, this shit is from memory, so I gotta go over things, this is mostly writing notes and this is where I keep them, if ya wanna see behind the curtain. Anybody needing help can come here too, though the thread might be replaced with a manual perhaps... I hate working on a word processor, so most things are written here where I can feel the wind at my back. Later I'll scarf the text and work in a word processor, cause ya can't edit worth shit here.

Don't study it much any more, drone pilot now. I got all I wanted and figured it out enough for my purposes, but I'm still learning, but through experience more now, this shit. I'm doing it for others, you gentle reader. Forgot most Buddhism too and only remember the serious stuff, do you remember much of what Donald said? End of note, felt like writing fur a spell
