I don't know if it's a good thing though...
I think the biggest gift us, humans have is the ability to forget some events in our lives. I wouldn't want to be a Super-Memory person. What do you think?

Holy crap he's like a walking historical encyclopaedia! That actually does sound cool, but I don't know if I'll want that. You're right that sometimes we struggle so much to forget things enough as it is, especially painful memories. But at the same time sometimes I also wish we could have a Pensieve so we could replay our best memories :)
