Record the Thought

When we were in Texas for Tiff's grandmas funeral I started thinking about all of the things that happened in her life that we will likely never know anything about. We all pass through some place or someone will say something that jogs a memory. Maybe a fond memory or maybe not, but it was something that was important enough for your brain to decide that it needed to be stored for later. These things show up briefly and then they are gone. If you do not make an effort to capture it, it may be gone forever. It may be the last time you remember that thing or the last time the que is encountered that brings up the memory. We should make an effort to record these things. After all we are a sum of our learned experience and these memories frame the way we approach the world.

The next time a memory comes to mind try to take the time to take a picture and write a brief sentence about it.
