if we remember, we remember always the last memory.

if we recall a situation or remember a person, its only a fake memory of reality. actually, we remember the last memory.

each memory cycle our consciousness state and our momentary mood works as a filter. some changes happen, secondary parts become suddenly important, allegedly important parts become secondary or get lost completely.

it's fatuous to believe, the past was really like we remember. this fact show up if two people share a common experience which happened longtime ago. if the two never talked about the experience their report will be quite different.

eventually the memory stays also during reminding the same. it doesn't change anymore. it is completely. whether this memory still describes reality ?

the memory has thereby changed to a story or an anecdote. the filter of consciousness and mood has no effect anymore. if we process now the story trough remembering, it stays the same.

the story becomes to a mirror image of the filter. the anecdote becomes to the mirror of our personality.
