In the arithmetical reality there are two kinds of place we can access, those where we keep our memories, and those where we don't. Both are infinite in numbers, but have different relative measure.

Suppose you retrieved the wrong ones, say mine. You would presumably feel, "I remember racing motorcycles, but that's not the sort of thing I'd like to do. I'm not even sure I know how to do it." This is probably the feeling of people who have multiple personalities when they are able to remember what they did when their other personality was in charge.

Notice that this is a reason to consider the material body more fundamental than consciousness.
