For me, I was really fascinated by it. As I get older, I find that my mind is less focused than when I was younger. While I have an elephant\u2019s memory<\/strong> every time my husband does something I don’t like, I cannot always remember what I had for dinner the previous night (for example). So, the idea of capturing<\/strong> one second of my day is interesting.<\/p>\n\u79c1\u306e\u5927\u5207\u306a\u8a18\u9332<\/h2>\n
On the other hand, I\u2019m not necessarily an image-oriented person. I write in a journal almost everyday and have done so since I was eight-years-old. In this way, I think that I have been capturing my life. I have shelves full of my old diaries. Occasionally, I read back on some of them and laugh. Thus, I feel almost as if I have been doing this one-second a day concept for a many years already – just in written form.<\/p>\n
\u8a18\u9332\u306e\u4ed5\u65b9\u306f\u305d\u308c\u305e\u308c\u3002\u5927\u4e8b\u306a\u306e\u306f\uff1f<\/h2>\n
No matter what form is used, I agree with Kuriyama that remembering our experiences makes us more appreciative of the life we have. Often, we can think to ourselves that we haven\u2019t done much and wish that we led more exciting lives. These days, social media makes us question our regular experiences as there is a tendency to compare with others based on how many \u2018likes\u2019 or \u2018views\u2019 one gets.<\/p>\n
Therefore, I like this idea and have downloaded an app to see what I make over the next month. If it brings me some joy, then I might continue on.<\/p>\n
What about you? Is this something you might do too?<\/p>\n
