“It is not however, adulthood itself, but parenthood that forms the glass shroud of memory. For there is an interesting quirk in the memory of women. At 30, women see their adolescence quite clearly. At 30 a woman's adolescence remains a facet fitting into her current self.... At 40, however, memories of adolescence are blurred. Women of this age look much more to their earlier childhood for memories of themselves and of their mothers. This links up to her typical parenting phase.” LooksSelfAgeFormMotherWomenMemoriesInterestingChildhoodRemainsGlassesCurrentsLinksParenthoodAdulthoodPhasesAdolescenceTypicalFittingFacetsQuirksShrouds Author:Terri E Apter
“Our growing addiction to the Internet is impairing precious human capacities such as memory, concentration, pattern recognition, meaning-making, and intimacy. We are becoming more restless, more impatient, more demanding, and more insatiable, even as we become more connected and creative.

We flit, moving restlessly from one link to another.” ThinkingHumansLongCareMovingMemoriesAbilityCreativeIssuesGrowingBecomingInternetLosingCapacityAddictionPatternsConnectedRecognitionIntimacyConcentrationLinksRestlessImpatientBecoming MoreInsatiableHuman Capacity Author:Margaret J.
