Memory constitutes the identity's subjective weave; it holds the person's image together throughout his or her life. We must have a history of our life that provides certain continuity, even if a large part of that history is fiction and contains lapses and errors. Memory manifests itself through memories, but also through repetitive actions that reproduce the traumatic situations the person is not aware of óa behavior, which is clearly beyond the pleasure principle. Transference -the relationship between the analyst and the patient- is, among other things, a repetition of relationships and behavioral schemata from the past, never identical, through its appearance in the analysis, makes it possible to be understood and modified. Memory is not a static reservoir of mnemic traces, since they are all rewritten a posteriori, as a consequence of new events or insights, which make memory an archive under constant construction throughout the person's life. The psychoanalytic work is not the recovery of forgotten mnemic traces, but the creation of new insights and meanings in the person's biography. It is the production of a new way to conceive and link the events in one's own life, which will allow the development of new projects and will open the door for a new destiny.
