Memories Of A Forgetful People

Listen to "Memories Of A Forgetful People" on Spreaker. Do we forget or do we shove things aside so we don't have to deal with it? We know of the good bad and ugly moments! Ask anyone about September 11th. The words they speak in the present won't be how they were used during what became a page in global history. That's what's scary about being a daily journal writer. Although it's always a learning experience to go back 1 to 10 to 25 years, the emotion captured in the physical moment is not only read but the depth of the writing instrument is still felt when you lightly rub your fingers across the page. In an everyday world of now we don't truly remember the prayers that were shared or how each word was used to empower and or help heal. Everybody talks about how fast life is moving yet we rarely spend time preserving what instantly becomes a missing puzzle piece. We are in this moment of now because it's more than a continuation. Emotions brought us here. Changes have been made to give us this day. I'll never forget when Apple first introduced their phones and how users went through the first updates. So much changed. People demanded to go back to the original way. Look at the smart phone today. I sure don't want to go back. That old way which created emotion because of change is completely out of date. I'm endlessly told that people document their journey by way of social media. Facebook Twitter and Instagram are the fields of this is how life's been. Facebook likes to remind you of an event from 5 to 15 years ago. Interestingly enough it's rarely if ever the bad days, the struggles and stumbles. Those places in our life when we needed to make a change and life happened. Do we forget or do we shove things aside?
