Diaries and memoirs
Keeping a diary is a very useful occupation. Thus you can remember any day of your life, plunge into your recollections and assess your actions and thoughts. It is a very nice opportunity to see if you have become mature and more experienced in life. Keeping a diary is a sort of communication between your past and your future. This is something between a dialog and a monolog. This is a dialog, because it is a talk between your past and your present self. At the same time all these selves refer to one and the same person. These notes may seem useless, but in fact they are very useful. We become old and try to remember our lives in detail. Many people write memoirs. Maybe you will also do it. Your notes may become the main material for your memoirs. Memoirs are your final words, you pass on to further generations. If you want your grandchildren to remember you, you must leave something for them, some message or some epistle. This is one of the ways to continue your life after death. You will live in memory of your children and grandchildren. That is why if you are not keeping a diary, start this. This is a very useful occupation.
