Why is human memory so unreliable?

Inspired by [this](https://www.reddit.com/r/AskReddit/comments/g2csg5/what_fact_is_ignored_generously/fnlesbi?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share) comment by u/squigs, I came here to ask you: Why we can’t remember details of things and, in most of the times, we make up things to fill the gaps on our memory.

Why does our brain do this?

Check out Stumbling on Happiness by Dr. Daniel Gilbert. It is very funny and gets into this matter and so much more.
