As Christmas approaches, I thought it might be fun to reflect. I was going through some pictures that I found in my mother's home, and they brought back many memories, but also made me think of how much we truly do forget in our lifetimes. I saw pictures of things that I clearly remember, and many of things that I cannot, even wracking my brains, recall for the life of me. It was quite interesting to try though, and quite funny to think that these crazy pictures existed. Just food for thought, even with the advent of the "digital age," we need to give clear labels to pictures, dates and subjects, or else, as people grow and change physically, we may not remember who is in that particular photo, or when or where it was taken. So, this CHristmas, or New years eve, or New year's day, take lots of photos, enjoy the memories, but label them so tha tthey can be enjoyed in the future! That is all for now, love those you are with this Christmas season!

That is some great advice. The more we go digital the less records we keep.

Good advice!! I have forgotten so much of my past. Some things I can remember so well and others I can't hardly at all or not at all.

Good advice Miki. I am indeed guilty of the same neglectful behavior. Merry Christmas to all.
