An imagination is an amazing thing to have, but sometimes, it doesn't allow you to trust your memory. With a little outside influence, you could remake a memory, misremember a tiny detail, and even believe you remember an event that never happened. A great gift can be a curse, amirite?

Actually it's been discovered that every time you remember an event you change it a little so it's not the exact same memory. The change is too small to realize but eventually the memory and reality of what happened are different.

Yes, I've heard of that. Isn't it pretty cool, how we all make it so we each have our own unique view point? Cool, but sad, too. It's like you'd never really know the truth.
