A flash, a glimpse, a photo, an image,a smell, a scent, a word,...
At first just a hazy recollection...
And then your neurons going on an overdrive, the rapid flux of ions, the unfolding of synapses,chemical connections made and then broken, circuits switched on and then off, the dregging of the storehouses of memory,the amygdala and the hippocampus working in tandem, firing impulses to the frontal cortex...
A vision, a blur, a 'just on the tip of the tongue feeling'...
And then Voila! The memory flashes LOUD and CLEAR, the vivid remembrance, the EMOTION...
Ah what bliss, what joy, the limbic system. The beloved Papez circuit.
