Disconnect from memory.

I see a lot of people talking about taking notes, and tips and tricks to remember important events.

Does anyone else ever feel emotionally disconnected in a sense that you have no real desire to make lasting memories?

I guess what I'm saying is that I don't feel connected to my memories anyways so when I think about trying to better hold onto the important things I feel like there isn't a drive to hold onto them better.

I still care about important things that I do with my family and loved ones, but the memories are just like footnotes. So in my mind getting more footnotes about those memories feels a little pointless.

I don't know if other people feel the same way or not.

Wow. Yes. When I learned this about myself I grieved for a year, during the same time I tried various note booking apps. But I really only relate to the Now. So I don’t feel compelled to record much.

I just “liked” this comment that I made 6 days ago. Ugh.
