It was a bit surprising for me that while we are stressed out, our brain releases stress hormones such as cortisol, and these hormones stay in our blood for about 2 hours or more. 

On the other hand, while you are happy, the situation is similar, but happiness hormones such as serotonin duration of stay in the blood are about 10-20 minutes. 

Therefore, we are so much likely to feel stress in a long period rather than happiness

As we all know, we have a memory that helps us in different ways. Without memory, our daily life would be a bit boring and meaningless such as some illnesses (Alzheimer).

We have two kinds of memory. Long term and short term memory. 

The information retention period is likely to change in those places, but that is not our topic. 

When we remember, our egoist brain is putting itself in the center of attention and in the main position. For instance, while you are in a meeting, you shared your opinion, but it was not the best idea. You remembered you had the best idea, but it wasn't. 

Your brain is so much likely to remember the events that happened in the past as if you were in the main position.
