How Do We Remember Things And Why? How Does Our Brain and Memory Work?

Why do we remember our first date, our first kiss, but not what we wrote to our partner at WhatsApp three weeks ago? Why can children name us 802 different Pokémon characters, but not the capital of Romania? Why can students get every spell from Harry Potter right, but forget their Latin vocabulary in the test?

How Do You Remember Things And Why?
Our brain works in a fascinating way. It is not only interesting, but very likely useful to understand how and why our memories are saved and recalled.
Life means learning and learning is easier when one understands how memory and its recalls works.
