The Nose is a Funny Thing

Any psychologist will tell you that the area of your brain that processes smell is quite close to where your memories are held. Hence why smells can bring you back to a memory.

I just got a waft of my Dad that reminded me of being very little. It was a fond memory. As an adult, I can tell its a combonation between Dial soap, coffee, and cologne. But to me its "Daddy in the morning." The sad thing is that when I move away I may never smell that particular smell again. The neat thing is, I just happened to be up early enough to catch it. And it made me smile.
