I have a great memory. Sometimes I remember things that were sad, difficult or unpleasant. But mostly I choose to remember the good things. Those good memories can take me back to wonderful times and places. I am grateful to have such a good memory. Those who have it taken from them are truly at a loss. Those who let the memories fade are those who haven't chosen to recall them often. I am a journal keeper. I have my main journal, my gratitude journal, my scripture journal and now this blog. One of my purposes in writing it is to recall and preserve memories of the past and of the present, so that sometime in the future I may come back to it and reminisce. The longer I live and the more memories I gather, the more things I can recall to help boost my mood. I am trying to create simple memories and one way to help that is to savor the sights, sounds, smells and tastes of things. The more senses I initiate, the better I can recall the memory later.
I think I'll make a memory today...
