Capturing thoughts and ideas

It continues to be fascinating what we can acquire, store and leave for posterity. One of  the great blessing of life is the individuality of each person. it is said that a person has about two thoughts every minute. It then becomes what will a person do with his thoughts? Will he make all go to waste? It is thoughts I believe that leads to ideas so ignoring our thoughts will also lead to a shortage of ideas. Ideas not acted upon is a waste of  valuable resource.
For many years I have been challenging older persons to write down and record their memories. I believe that the older persons have wisdom of years and that is one of the things that they will always have over the young. I cannot honestly say no one has acted on this because I have no way to know how I influence those with whom I come into contact.
Here is a challenge. always carry with you a pen and writing material and when a thought occur write it down. Do I do this for myself? The answer is, yes.
