4B. Which is more important: actual experiences, or the memories that remain when the experiences are over? Originally Posted by YummyMarie
Happiness researchers will tell you memories are important to your happiness. Under your question, you lose 1 year of memories. You need both the experience and the memory. Each means nothing without the other. Your experiences and memories make up who you are. Originally Posted by Uncle HanI listened to a very interesting talk on TEDTalks about memory last night. It talks about how the peak experience and the ending experience most significantly impacts the type of memory we're left with. For example, if you listen to a great symphony and are having an amazing time throughout the majority of the performance, but then it ends with a horrible ending, you'll more likely be left with a memory of it being a poor experience even though you enjoyed it throughout the majority of the time.
Would any of you pay for a memory implant such as is done in the movie "Total Recall," with Arnold Schwarteneiger? Given that memory is good of course... Originally Posted by YummyMarieHell yeah!

1. Hard question. I have thought I was in love several times before, but the current love I have is so awesome and amazing that I now doubt that I ever loved anyone before. I think there are a few stages/types of love and it just changes as you grow and experience leads you to understand what it means. Originally Posted by Liliana Vess

1. In love, is intensity or permanence more important to you? How much do you expect from someone who loves you?
