Now that you have created all these happy memories, how can you remember them?

When I saw the book The Art of Making Memories in Copenhagen’s airport, at the end of my trip to Iceland, I instantly knew that I wanted to buy and read it. Written by Meik Wiking, the author of The Little book of Hygge, the book presents some findings by the Happiness Research Institute, insights on how to make memories, and the general science behind how and why we remember some specific things and moments.

I want to fully enjoy things that I’ve put off in a while before anything weird happens to the world again

I want to start documenting nice places and experiences again. I want to remember them as much as I can. I want to hold on to happy memories and always choose to think of positive things. I’m a firm believer in the law of attraction so I don’t want my mind to dwell on negative things. Doing that requires a lot of practice and discipline though.

I want to be able to look back at this time and fondly remember every moment!

I should also take a moment to introduce my travel companion Emerald. Emerald is a Beanie Boo loaned to me by my lovely daughter Kaylee for my trip to Ireland. Kaylee selected her as my travel companion because Emerald is actually from Dublin, Ireland! I will be sure to post lots of pictures of our adventures together.

I can’t seem to move past it as quickly as I want to or thought I would

wish i could turn you back into a stranger – i must become a lion hearted girl (wordpress.com)

Bits & Pieces

This morning I had an idea of something I wanted to post, but I was in the middle of getting breakfast ready… and now I’ve forgotten what it was. 😐

Some people think that if it’s important, then it will return sooner or later, but I’m not so sure about that. For members of the community, I strongly recommend using the drafts feature to quickly jot down an idea, and then instead of clicking the blue “Publish” button at top right, to use the “Save draft” link to the left of it — and then it will be saved to the (list of) drafts page (same link as above).

That way, editors can review and reach out (and encourage) hashing out such “bits & pieces” into full ideas. I think we should use the drafts page as a collaborative whiteboard, sticking potential “post it” stickers there, maybe suggesting edits, making annotations, etc. A good idea is a terrible thing to lose!
