A351 Memory Two (Forgotten)

There are times when an event, an object, a person, or some thing we come across will make us aware of a definite gap or space in our memory, and with a flash of regret, we know we have completely forgotten something. It isn't the kind of forgetting that suddenly awakens at a prompt, reminding us of something tucked away in the back of our minds. Instead, it is a complete erasure, like the blank spot where a tile is missing, or a piece of the jigsaw. Personally, I like to take these blank spots and draw or paint something there, to fill the gap.
