I Can't Remember

Memory is a fundamental part of our life. It makes us who we are and formulates our ideas and thoughts it lets us solve problems. Without memory we wouldn’t be the person we are in the present. Imagining the future could not be done without having memory about the past. Memory has different aspects there is sensory memory, short term memory and long term memory. Sensory motor is the ability to remember an object with only a second of seeing it, this sort of memory diminishes quickly. In short term memory people can store a small amount of information; this time of information can be recalled for a short period of time. Long term memory is the capacity of storing memory for a few weeks and as long as your entire life, especially when it involves emotion. The guy in the video with short term memory problems had great difficulty living day by day. Most of the time he can’t remember what he has to do or what was he going to do. He also finds it difficult to remember names, places and instructions. He has to concentrate more and write things down to have a better chance of remembering them. This type of lamentable cases is what demonstrates us that memory is a fundamental aspect in human nature.
