MCI as a “Golden Moment”

 

My experience with MCI Mild Cognitive Impairment is that it is a golden moment - a change from the usual as the thinking-feeling balance shifts, but before dementia/Alzheimer's do their evil damage to human functioning.  As I write this in March 2023 I remain at the MCI stage and haven’t gone further, and accept some loss of memory but am very alert to any sign of a problem with my ability to function in life (carry out familiar activities) which would indicate that I am transitioning to the next stage.

 

In what ways is MCI a “Golden Moment”?  What I feel the most and enjoy the most is that my guts are taking over some of what my head is used to handling.  When something happens - I hear or see something, I need to do something, a situation arises that I need to relate to - it first goes through my guts and I FEEL it and have an initial connection/response, and only then does my mind get involved to think it through.  This is not a long process each time and occurs entirely within a few moments but it makes a big difference in how I feel and how I relate to the world - and I’m glad to be able to use this approach!  The word / feeling / actions / approach / connections of "Release" are quite present now.  Together with MCI Mild Cognitive Impairment comes MEE Mild Emotional Enhancement.  It’s not always simple and I actually cry a lot, not crying from sadness or pain but from feeling and connecting, and MCI has put me in a place that I value and am glad to be in and will be glad to stay in for as long as possible.  Following this comes decline, approaching the point of being non-functional, and coming to my Resonating~Death.
