Today I began painting version three of my bird orbiting a black hole. I wasn't very happy with it and I've been feeling very weak today, I reason due to my digestion which has been slow and "blocked", due to a slowdown after a hectic weekend. This is an annoying symptom of my I.B.S. and today left me too tired to want to move for a few hours.
However I did discover a new mental trick; how to erase a memory. I don't mean just ignore a memory, or make them fade naturally in the way we might not remember the weather last Thursday, I mean actually forget something. This does take a few sessions, but there is a simple clear exercise that anyone can do to forget an unwanted memory. I hope to spend some time in writing a detailed essay on this because it's not difficult and it is useful, to me at least. For a start I firmly believe that memory is finite, and freeing up some by forgetting old television has no downsides!
