Not long ago, a photo of the football players in my college showed up on my phone as a “memory”, which was kept through the digital memory(数字记忆).I was surprised to see the photo at first and sweet memories flashed into my mind.
In the photo,the players from the football team hugged together in excitement after they won the game.At that time,I took a photo of them with my phone.It recorded the friendship and the happiness. Then, I fell into the habit of taking photos of everything. More and more photos filled my phone so I almost forgot this photo. Thanks to the digital memory, I could enjoy the happy time again.
People needed to make an effort to record things in the past. But now we can do something like that easily through the digital memory. We put what we want to remember into our smartphones. Most of the photos that I have kept on my phones—and in the cloud now— bring happy memories back to me.
However,not all the digital memories are happy.Some are sad.When I see the photos of my lost pet,I am worried.Because they make me recall something I want to forget.Usually, digital memories are sent to me non-stop and without any human-like feelings.That drives me crazy.
It's hard to say clearly when the digital memory started madly.These digital memories, whether happy or sad,break into our lives.In my job as a reporter,I have spent the past five years taking different photos.They will always be there,whatever.
