Memory is the mental activity of recalling information that you have learned or experienced. That simple definition, though, covers a complex process that involves many different parts of the brain and serves us in disparate ways. Memory can be short-term or long-term. In short-term memory, your mind stores information for a few seconds or a few minutes. Long-term memory involves the information you make an effort (conscious or unconscious) to retain, because it's personally meaningful to you.
