_{[The feed flicks on to the image of a pair of pokemon dozing outside under a tree. An Eevee and a shiny Venonat are curled up together as if they were brothers. They may as well be. A tiny stream of smoke wafts into the frame from Henry's cigarette.]}

This is kind of a weird question but...has anybody started to forget things about home? I know some weird stuff happened to me before I wound up here but...I can't remember what color my carpet was. Or what commercials used to come on all the time on TV. Or what the mirror in my bathroom used to look like...

Your most significant memories should hold out the longest. Some simple exercises, assigning meanings to things to promote remembrance, should help you to retain things longer. The more you use those memories, the more important they are, the higher priority they will be filed in your mind.

Well, the weird stuff was pretty significant...you've got some good ideas though. Like making lists.

text; wow, apparently I didn't get a notif for this... sorry

Perhaps making a journal of things you do not wish to forget... a written record is more permanent.

text; it's okay!

Yeah. My friend's dad is a writer. I'm sure he can hook me up with a journal.

I suppose it bears saying that even if you feel that you no longer remember something, it is essential to remember that all of your memories are bound up with your heart. So long as your heart beats, that memory will still exist, no matter if your mind has lost it. Who knows, perhaps that memory may return somehow, guided back to conscious thought at the right moment.

Thank you.

You're welcome. I've found sometimes it is the simplest truths that mean the most.
