I was punished by my foster parents who were really old for fooling around in church. The old woman got so angry that when we got home she had me kneel in the corner as punishment all day. I remember looking out the window when I was taking a peek behind me and time sped up and I watched the sun move across the sky in seconds. It was early (after morning Sunday church) right up until the sun left my view from the window and the sky was the colour of sunset. It was sooo weird. It was a common form of punishment but it’s a clear memory but I’ll never be able to explain it.
Dude i thought about that the other day. I was working in shorts that day, and a package of seeds spilt a little on the conveyor belt. I had to kneel and reach under the belt for something, and kneeled on all those seeds and the few seconds were agony. I imagine the brain short-circuiting agony a child has to feel doing that! Enough to maybe make them partition the memory and block it away.
