yes! it's as if people can be objective about a memory and say 'oh I remember it was a cloudy day, my sister was wearing a green tshirt, the dog was outside barking. she pushed me in the mud and laughed. I went inside and our house had photographs of flowers on the walls. ate a cheeseburger. then we watched the lion king. I remember feeling sad but was happy after."
When I experience a memory I am usually experiencing the emotion of the memory. But I experience emotions differently too. So it's more like: "Oh I remember my sister pushing me in the mud, I felt betrayed and scared. my heart was pounding out of my chest. she got mud all over my jeans. I cried for so long. I went inside and wanted to be comforted, I got comforted with a hug by mom. i ate a cheeseburger and felt better. we watched lion king which made me feel good."
Or something like that .
