Memory

Do you trust your memories? Are they 100% reliable? Have your memories ever conflicted with another person's memories? If you don't trust your memory, how do you have know what happened in the past?

  1. No, you cant trust your memories because there not alway what really happened. You cant be 100% sure on something that happened in the past because you mind can reenact a situation and make you believe something is true but in reality it can be a false memory.

  2. I trust my memories but I don't think that they are always reliable. My memories often conflict with another persons, a lot of times its because i thought i did something but i really didnt (or the other person). However since you can't fully trust your memory you can never be 100% sure of the past.

  3. I generally trust my memories, but not one hundred percent. Sometimes you forget or miss details, which makes the memory incomplete. My memories have conflicted with other peoples, a lot! I think to know what happened, you can compare memories of several people and see similarities or stories that match up.

  4. I can and can't trust my memories. My memories have conflicted with others many times. I was telling a friend something that happened last week when I was with them but I didn't remember it correctly because they said how it really happened. Then I realize that what he said actually happened. But sometimes maybe a friend tells you how he remembers it, but their memories are false.

  5. I trust most of my memories. Some memories I have seem like they're true but there's always a missing or added detail that makes my memories incomplete or incorrect. In your mind you can see a lot of events that are like a video clip I'm watching. But, as time passes by, your memories become scarce. It's not likely for a person to remember everything from the first detail to the last. So, I do not trust my memories 100%.

  6. I don't trust my memories because I don't have many memories and I have an eary feeling that...the ones I do have change. But, I think it's small details, some change a memory durastically, but, some don't.
