About “all the sadness to be”

Memory, grief and resilience. We also understand memory as a complete function, formed by two contradictory elements that include remembering and forgetting. One of the questions that we strive to articulate with you is to think about the limits between both elements of memory and forgetfulness. Does memory really exist? Or is it a subconscious action as a way to avoid remember a traumatic event? How do we remember? Do we remember through our senses or through our body? Is remembering a perception of the mind or the heart? What is remembering one more time?
