Wow. But I'm quite fond of my false memories (of course not knowing if they are false) because they provide valuable insights into myself: surely I discarded some stuff and kept some stuff, or created some stuff for some reason. If I think back, some of my earliest memories have patterns: of me being a naughty child and so on. On Tue, Aug 16, 2016 at 7:22 AM Udhay Shankar N <[email protected]> wrote:
