Memory is not like taking a video of something or recording it, it is tainted with our own feelings, our perceptions, and physical environment. There is so much that goes into memory. Yes you may feel you remember exactly, but if someone else where there they might report details differently, because of their perception. There are things I know for sure and there are things I don't, but in the end, does it really matter, whether memory is completely accurate? Like if you thought it was winter but it was summer because you were inside a house that was very cold due to a/c being turned on. Or some other thing. these items don't really matter, what matters most is your own perception. HTH. Blessings.
