Peanut Power Snack

I made Tender peanuts power snack for dinner last night. The first time I ate it was at Pegasus. After a rigorous military style workout this and tea super recharging. 

With that I have gone back to a memory. Should we go back to memories? Is it possible to forget these memories. Seemingly we don’t attach value to it we might. But this is a physiological thing not just psychological. What is DNA 🧬 if not memories? It gets passed generation to generation. How intrinsic that is to life! 

Also memories carry over births. A new born brain is blanked out but associations and experiences as the child grows into adulthood make the memories resurface. So wondering how easy is it to forget? How to delete that data? Especially selective data? 

A simple snack and a heavy rambling. 🤔🗯️
