Cue: Set an alarm
Reward: Enhanced my understanding
It is worth mentioning that I followed my identified habit every day. I completed my other chores before time so that I could have extra hours to review my class notes.

The connection and possible collaboration between oral history and reminiscence is the key issue for Joanna Bornat in Chapter 35. The main difference of the two fields, according to Bornat is its focus: “Where oral history tends to focus on the content of memory, what is perhaps more characteristic of reminiscence and life review is attention given to process and outcomes for participants”. The blending of these two can lead to surprising revelations about the historical and social context of the past that often break national barriers, as the author own experience has shown. Both practices, although different in Continue reading...

Memory is the capacity to recall information one has experienced or learned. Many people struggle with remembering events which they have experienced or previously had information on.

However, fitter adults who undertake physical activity have larger medial and hippocampal temporal lobes (der Borght, Havekes, Bos, Eggen, & Zee, 2007). According to Continue reading...

Memory is one of the most explored areas in psychology. It is defined as a means by which individuals retrieve past experiences for purposes of using the information in the present.

Jacques Derrida suggests that forgiveness does not have a limited or proper meaning. People cannot agree on the extent beyond which forgiveness can or cannot go. Forgiveness is so vast that it is hard to determine with certainty who and what calls for forgiveness.

The language unites Christianity, Judaism and Islam which depicts the cosmopolitan attribute of all people (involving all religions). It is an instance where forgiveness is globalized and resembles a Continue reading...
