You remember some bedrooms you have slept in. There are bedrooms you like to remember and others you would like to forget.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I remember getting a toilet in our house. I remember sharing a bedroom with my sister, and my little sister was sleeping in my mom and dad's room.
My memory is basically visual: that's what I remember, rooms and landscapes. What I do not remember are what the people in these room were telling me. I never see letters or sentences when I write or read, but only the images they produce.
I have a good memory for early life. My visual memory is good about childhood and adolescence, and less good in the last 10 years. I could probably tell you less what happened in the last 10 years. I remember what houses looked like, sometimes they just pop into my head.
I have found that all of my memories seem to need a place and that a good part of what we think of as explicit memory has to do with location.
I wanted to put all my family stories down for my girls, and I remember everything so vividly. I just wanted to put everything down while I still can remember it all.
Memory is the way we keep telling ourselves our stories - and telling other people a somewhat different version of our stories.
Memories are what you no longer want to remember.
Were it not better to forget than to remember and regret?
I remember I used to sleep on my records. In a room with no furniture. I remember I used to sleep in my car.
Memory is the thing you forget with.
