Why I blog: Post Addition.

So I meant what I wrote yesterday about writing our moments down. I think it is important. I do.


But as I have read over my post, I think I put a little too much emphasis on the recording our moments part. While that is beneficial in many ways, after giving it more thought I do not think it is the most important thing.

The most important thing for us to do is to actually live in those moments as we are given them, because those moments become our memories. And our memories are what hold the stories of our lives.

There are lots of ways to preserve our memories, our stories. Find what works for you. Writing is a great way, but it is not the only way. Take pictures. Create. Even just re-telling stories of our past, or reminiscing with others about our memories helps to keep them alive.

Live your life. Make memories. Record them when you can, and do it in a way that works for you.
