marcicat“Cat macros, what you had for breakfast, and that weird growth on your toenail are important; the macros were cute, breakfast meant you were less grouchy at work, and hey, that doctor you saw was kind of hot, it’s the life you live and by definition that makes it the most important thing you will ever do, being the medium by which you do anything at all. Human memory is volatile, we lose so much of our lives to background beyond recall and our lifespan is approaching the century mark, and in that time, we will be many different people, dozens, sometimes a couple of different ones every day, but I won’t remember it the same, memory is volatile, but when I read my journal, I get to meet every woman I’ve ever been again. She was important, all of them were; they made me. And years from now, when I read this, I’ll read this entry, by the woman I am now and I won’t be then, and I’ll be able to remember her. My mind is a container for all the people I’ve been, the people I am, and the people I could one day be; its a world entire in there, and that’s the world who judges what is important enough to write.”
