I totally understand. I often feel so upset that I can’t remember a lot of my past but I agree with what you said, that it all, in some way, has shaped us as the people we are now. I think it’s just the idea that ‘oh god, why can’t I remember this, how much other stuff have I forgotten’ and it all just sort of leads you into this really melancholic spiral where you keep thinking about all the possible things that your brain just doesn’t seem to remember. But I really like what you said about other people remembering; so in some way the memory isn’t really gone, it’s just with someone else.

You know this video made me realize I shouldn't be so hard on myself for forgetting things too and that doing so doesn't mean I intended to show disinterest, which is what I always feel like I've done when I'm talking to someone and can't recall something they bring up. What matters is that you listen to people in the moment and if you forget some things on the way don't beat yourself up, because at the end of the day everybody experiences some forgetfulness, we're only human.
