Cameras are a great way of recording memories of good times. Whether visiting friends or family or visiting someplace different or doing something different, a few photos can help bring back the whole time in memories.
It's kind of amazing how a photo of something or someone can aid the mind in recalling so many details of an event. I guess that's one of the reasons I take so many pictures. Otherwise, I might not even think of the event again. I must admit, I don't have the greatest memory. But, I can look at a photo and it all (well, most of it) comes flooding back.
Writing notes can do the same thing but a picture is worth a 1000 words! Still, I also treasure my old diaries, especially those pages where I wrote down some interesting details of my day. I suppose I should do more of that. Which reminds me, I guess I should print out my blog soon. You never know if something recorded off there in the digital world will always be there. After all, some blog companies have disappeared! But not tonight. It's getting late and I'm getting weary.
Photos, writing- yes they are great ways to keep the memories alive!
