Dory

Dory from Finding Nemo isn’t a goldfish but they both have a common similarity which is memory issues. They forget things easily and quickly

Humans actually have okay-ish memory, not on par with elephants which an elephant never forgets, and we certainly do not possess a goldfish’s 3-second memory span. We can remember facts well, but we remember emotions even better. Like how a student forgets the maths formulas the night before but remembers his first heartbreak a few years back.

There is a distinct difference between something not actually happening, or something you thought did not happen simply because you forgot it did. But if someone did not remind you, then to you, it did not happen. An act of clumsiness for most of us, but some people try to forget things on purpose to try to cope with the pain they have inside. 


If I handed in this blog entry, but you forgot that I did, then what now?

DFTBA,
