Looking at the thread https://forum.etcogito.ru/thread-9, I caught myself thinking about how easily I trust memories that later turn out to be wrong. There’s this weird internal certainty, like my version has to be the correct one simply because it feels familiar. That feeling alone can be incredibly persuasive.
But the more I think about it, the more it makes sense: the brain stores impressions, not exact footage. Each recall is a fresh reconstruction, shaped by mood, context, and whatever narrative we’ve already accepted. So the memory feels real — even when the reality behind it has already faded. |
