Locke talks about how our memory works. How the mind can recall a memory and not mean to. The mind is able to recall events that happen years ago and that the mind can remember it very clearly. I believe that this is true that are mind has the ability to recall things from the past even if we are not trying to and when we are trying to. The mind can recall an event and remember the smell, the sound and the sight.
However I also think that the mind can remember things the way we want to remember them and my us think that things happened in a way they did not. For example I can remember being five years old jumping on my bed with my cousin and she accidentally punch me in the nose and getting a bloody nose. She remembers me falling on to the bed post and getting a bloody nose. How is right? Did she really punch me or do I remember it this way? Is she remembering something the way it happened or the way she wants to remember it?
