matchbox memory

Random images ingrained in your memory for no apparent reason, that are too vague to analyze, or try to understand why? you remember them and not other random images from life.
Ex, suddenly being reminded of the sight of walking through a carnival from ten years ago, or a person from a dream who you never knew, that come back to you occasionally.
"Matchbox" memory, because they're so small and disposable (so flammable) but somehow they never disappeared; like a match lighting on fire in an instant, a matchbox memory just comes to you for no reason, but you know you've already thought about it sometime before.

You know those things you remember, that are like flashbacks but they don't mean anything? Those one-frame memories taking up space in your brain for no reason? That's a matchbox memory. Images from your life that don't mean anything but that you can't shake

Memorial day

Memorial Day is a federal holiday in the United States for mourning the U.S. military personnel who have died while serving in the United States armed forces. It is observed on the last Monday of May at national cemeteries, by placing flowers and American flags on graves of military personnel. By the late 1800s, many more cities and communities observed Memorial Day, and several states had declared it a legal holiday. After World War I, it became an occasion for honoring those who died in all of America's wars and was then more widely established as a national holiday throughout the United States.

Dude, we honor soldiers on memorial day.
