Finding things in the dark?

Question

If I get up while it's still dark, I always walk from my bed to my dresser & put my hands right on my glasses, even with no light on at all. I also do this if I put my glasses on my night stand sometimes. I think this is so wierd that I just automatically find my glasses no matter where I put them before I go to bed. Is this a common occurrence?

Answer 1

You probably make an unconscious note of the position of your glasses before you go to bed.  Some thoughts are stored in memory in the same manner as physiological functions, such as breathing, which are performed in an autonomous fashion.

Answer 2

to some of us - its normal. to some - its an achievement.  to some, it never happens.  so u r the one who got it right!  congratulations for this good brain / body coordination work.  it shows tt u are a healthy, strong person.  take care
