Our brain is
so powerful and incredible because it remembers every event that we experience.
It also continues to store and creates data and image patterns that differ from
one even to another even if we are at rest. My question is this what will
happen if our brain will be running out of memory or storage? Is it possible
that our brain will run out of storage?
I feel that
your brain does not run out of space. You can still teach an old dog new tricks
and habits can form. I have never heard of an elderly person saying that they
have no more memory room.. although I always hear my students say that!
I think our
brains gather and discard information, memories, images, etc. as is necessary.
We don't need to remember everything we have once known so our brains will
delete some useless information to make room for something more relevant.
Our brain
gathers and discards information. But it seems to gather less of it and discard
more of it as we age. I also think that again as we age, the recall process
becomes more difficult and slower. Often we know that we know (I guess that's
like 'diffuse' knowing) but we can't bring up the information.
I think our
brains constantly update information, as we enter the new knowledge at the same
time, if not to review old knowledge, it will be lost.
The brain
does in fact discard information to make way for new memories, this process
also happens when we are asleep in addition to the brain replaying thoughts to
remember them.
