Thanks for the memory

Posted by Fading Rock Chick on September 6, 2007 10:48 AM

A NEW study has confirmed what many of us already knew to be true, that good memories are harder to keep hold of than bad ones.
It appears that dangerous or distressing experiences make a bigger impression on our brains than happy ones.
Makes sense, really. Evolutionarily speaking, it is better to remember the time you nearly got eaten by a lion (so you can avoid the same thing happening again) than the dozens of times you enjoyed a peaceful evening by the fire.
All of this, of course, is a bit of a bummer for modern man.
