Memory , life , reality

Dear Maryam,

Have you ever wondered what is MEMORY?.

Wiki's explanation is this:

memory is an organism's ability to store, retain, and recall information.

Kamus dewan's explaination is:

1. Apa yang diingat, yang terbayang di pikiran sepanjang ingatan
2. Alat atau daya batin untuk mengingat atau menyimpan sesuatu yang pernah diketahui (dipahami atau dipelajari)
3. Pikiran, dalam arti angan-angan, kesadaran

Mama's definition of MEMORY pulak is:

...................................................................................................... i do not know which life is real. Life with you? or life without you? how could you be real if you are not here?

but how could you be not real because i have pictures, clothes, toys, i can see those, touch those, smell those

................... and these silent movies in my head, sometimes they're not silent, sometimes i hear your laughter in it, the feel of your skin against my lips and the smell of your hair

................... i remember all those

......... is this real? coz if it is, then it is cruel

...........................but maybe, just maybe

............. cruel is real

............................... is this the reality? coz if it is,

...........this is my new cruel reality
