Memory is Fragile and Subject to Decay

Memories can fade away over time, even important events. Consuming content like TV shows or books can be like consuming food, easily forgotten. The fear of losing memories due to illnesses like Alzheimer's can be overwhelming. The size of one's reality is directly linked to the size of their memory. Remembering a memory is actually remembering the last time you remembered it, leading to potential loss in shared memories with others. When relationships end, shared memories fade, leaving fragments that can dissolve like a dream.
