What is the purpose of memory?


Every day we experience life – we sense it, we act in it, we feel emotions about it, we think about it and we are aware of who we are, or think we are, in it.

 

As we experience new things we tend to store it away in memory for the future possibility of the experience happening again. This way we will know how to behave and we might choose to do something differently.
