That's why we don't value photos that much in my family. The point is to actually _live_ a good life, not _remember_ it.

- stavros 1y agoYou don't have to choose between one or the other, though.
- rayboy1995 1y agoThis is true, I think its good to find a balance between living life and making sure you at least take some good memories. I have had a number of times I just don't remember a moment, only for a friend to show an old photo they happened to see again and a flood of good memories come back.
- interroboink 1y agoI thought your phrasing of "take some good memories" = photographs was kinda interesting, given the topic (: As always, relevant xkcd: https://xkcd.com/1314/ https://xkcd.com/1314/ (though I do find myself in the "don't worry about documenting it" camp more often than not. The nagging background thought of "don't forget to take a picture" tends to bring me out of the moment, sometimes)
