Without your memory you are nothing?!?


Question:
I believe that who you are is simply the sum of all your experiences.

People you have met, places you have been & things you have done.

If you had no memory of these things...what are you?

Opinions please.

Answers:
Well no, you are not your memories. New memories can be made. Every day is a new experience. I saw a documentary of this guy who was in a terrible accident and lost all of his long term memory and a good deal of his short term ability was gone. He struggled, but he certainly wasn't "nothing". You are your personality, not your memories. If you lose your memories, some of your personality that was molded by those memories might be different, but you would still be a person.
I agree. Without memories of your experiences you wouldn't really have much. How would you know what kind of person you were if you couldn't remember how you acted in certain situations?
hey kinda a hard one.
i am jus tellin u my opinion.
without the memory of wht u r i dont think so it matters.
i mean i think u can live too if u dont have any memory of them.
and even if u didnt have memory of all the things u did so far u can atleast rmbr the things u had jus done a few hours b4.
so u can rmbr smthg so i dont think so it will matter a lot.
hehehhe
anyways keep rockin!!!
