Capturing Memories

Two friends attended the memorial service of Charlie Kirk; a young man whose mission left an indelible mark. His passion for Christ and his vision for our nation sparked something larger than himself. Even in his passing, he built memories that will ripple across lives for years to come. That is the power of a life well-lived; it creates memories that cannot be erased.

But building memories isn’t only for the big, public moments. It happens every day, often in ways we overlook. My grandchildren create memories daily with their laughter, their curiosity, and even their mischief. Yet if I don’t capture them, those treasures risk fading into the blur of time.

That’s why I value journaling. Words on a page can resurrect a moment years later with astonishing clarity. Add a picture, and suddenly the colors return. Add a short video, and you can hear the laughter again, see the sparkle in their eyes, and feel the warmth of the day. Journaling, paired with photos and videos, becomes a time capsule, a gift to our future selves and to those who will come after us.

Memories, big and small, drift away unless we give them a place to live. Recording them doesn’t just preserve them; it honors the life that created them. Without that effort, the wonders of life, as vibrant as they are in the moment, too easily get left behind. I am challenged to capture the moments, big and small, and not let the great things fade into oblivion.

Watch for the blind spots.
