My earliest memory seems random and does not make much sense. The memory consists of me sitting all alone at the lunch table in daycare at the age of three, eating a mountain of peas. I wonder how this image is significant over all others from my earliest years. Why do I remember the peas? I do not remember playing in a park at that age, or sleeping in our first apartment, but eating a plate full of peas was significant to my three-year-old self. If my first memory were of corn, or of playing blocks with my big sister, would I be the same? Our memories help to define who we are.
