It’s weird how I’ll see a dream and really ponder over it right after waking only for it to be completely out of my memory shortly after.

    Short term memory vs long term memory.

    That’s why some people keep dream journals by their bed, because if you do something with that information right away once awake, you’ll probably commit it to long-term memory.

      When you put something into short term memory, like reading this text, you remember this much better than the dream.
