This is a work in which I try to show the fragility of storing memories in memory, referring both to our mental capacity and also as a record by some technological means.
This idea arose because of a recent event about the loss of a person I miss a lot. In trying to recover its essence, I find myself unable to revive the symbolic concept of its existence, to ensure a representation that feels faithful to reality. It is impossible not to modify sensations associated with a past experience. Currently and for several years now, we have had the technological alternative as a means of storage. Although, in relation to our mind, it does not guarantee us any real accuracy either.
With this writing I do not seek to raise an objection to the modification of both material and immaterial things. I find it interesting to the point that I want to dedicate myself to constantly modifying reality! Let go of the idea of recovering and focus on the future. Visualize and search among the multiple possibilities that you find within reach to convert what you imagine on the immaterial plane into a type of format that can be shared with whoever can receive it.
