If you cannot forget some emotional content (or forgive if you got hurt by somebody) that is definitely a curse and this kind of memory can be only a burden. Yes I agree too.

My memory begins around 4 yrs old and I can pretty much recollect details from that age forward. Though I notice that periods with lower emotional content tend to get lost "boring periods". And yes it is certainly a curs, you can clearly remember every stuffup. I find that too. My memory begins around 4 yrs old and I can pretty much recollect details from that age forward.

It is actually part of a group of nuclei called the basal nuclei or basal ganglia that are involved in motion and a whole lot of other stuff. It's specific location is somewhat wrapped around the lateral edge of the lateral ventricles, the butterfly-like open spaces that are so easily visible on an MRI.
