One of the challenges of having an aging brain is comparable to owning an iPhone with 31 of 32GBs of memory already filled, the current state of my iPhone 8. The result of this phenomena is a vivid memory of something, but not much recollection of the back story, and sometimes it takes a lot longer to get to the details than one would hope.
For example, I vividly remember taking a trip to Washington, D.C., for a meeting, but I donât remember who I went there with or exactly why. Because I was the executive director of Laurel Arts in Somerset at the time, Iâm thinking the meeting might have had something to do with the National Endowment for the Arts or maybe the National Endowment for the Humanities.
