Memory Blog Post

I think that there were differences in the way we recall the situation and the atmosphere, because each person has his own way to perceive the information that surrounds him or her, some people will pay attention to some events taking place in that moment, while other people would pay more attention to different events. For example, in my picture my family and I were taking a walk, while I recall the situation as a moment in which I was mainly focused in reach the end of the park with my bicycle, my father only remembers that in that moment he was relaxed, taking a walk, and he had to pay attention to me because those were the days in which I recently learnt to ride a bike, so he was concerned, because he did not want me to fall off the bike. We both remember that we were taking a walk and just enjoying Malaga’s sunny summer, but the way in which we remember it is different. I think that our memories of that picture were different because we had our minds focused on different things.

 

Memory is basically one the most important part of us, without having memory we would not recall anything of our daily life, our name, our family, our friends. We cannot life without storing all the information that we receive in our memory. Memory is what allows us to recognize a person unconsciously, once we have been introduced to a person, the information that we already know that person is stored in our memory, without memory we would not be able to know that we already know that person, and not only this, even basic things like knowing our name or the way we look would not remain in our mind. So as a conclusion I would say that without memory life would be really different, we would not be able to recognize our parents, friends ,siblings, or basic information that the memory stores at early age.
