Neurology and psychology research shows (unequivically) that human memory is (at BEST) hit-or-miss. The more time elapsed between an event and its recollection, the more likely you are to MISremember it. It's not an intentional thing (usually) it's just that our brains are plastic, always changing, connecting A & B & then V which overrides, just a little, the connection to F, etc. Your photos (and by "your" I mean both the ones you've taken and posted that I have seen and the ones I've taken of you that I have still) are precious to me, because they're solid - and memory never is. :) Nooooo – the photos you take are *so* amazing – and they *do* capture instants that would otherwise cease to exist.
