whether it is 'memory' or actual presence in that point in space and time continuum is debatable. probably more the latter.
however, losing something removes that thing from the continuum you are in, and therefore changes and shapes the entire future and the path the existence you are partaking is on. it may or it may not be a desirable path. and hence, there may be undesirable, harder paths to travel among more efficient, fruitful and enjoyable ones, that constitutes a loss. the loss would be recovered at point infinity, however that point is infinitely far away at any given time.
