A journalist once interviewed a man known only as “S,” who had a memory so powerful he could
recall entire books word-for-word years after reading them. He could replay conversations in
his mind like audio recordings and even remember the exact shape of clouds from a random Tuesday
decades earlier. At first, it seemed like a superpower. But it turned out
to be a curse. He couldn’t forget arguments, embarrassing moments, or painful experiences.
His mind was so crowded with memories that he struggled to live in the present. Scientists studying
him realized that forgetting isn’t a flaw — it’s necessary for a healthy mind. His story changed
how psychology understands memory forever.
