This is one of those times where I did actually remember that thing I wanted to remember when I was thinking about things earlier. It is often the case that I have a seemingly(and I would argue realistically) useful or important line of thought running around in my head that would be good to write about, yet, when the time comes for me to actually get anything down in writing, usually at some point much later in the day, I seem to be grasping at straws and am unable to reclaim that once important line of thought at all.(sorry for the long sentence) When this happens, I almost always hear the line, "well, if you can't remember it now, it probably wasn't that important to begin with," but I am now tending to think there is not any powerful logic to support that assumption. In fact, I tend to think that the important/useful thoughts are being lost to lack of immediacy every day because of the nature of life. Good/important/useful things are met with equal resistance to their level of importance, which would naturally lead to a greater challenge when trying to retain them since life wants them to just go away. I believe, now, that the most important thoughts of inspiration need to be recorded right away in order for them to reach their greatest level of efficiency and importance. Just figuring out how to do it is now the challenge I need to figure out.
That was a long paragraph. This is a very short one.
I guess there is always a lot of room for improvement in my theory here but I am glad it stuck around for me to repeat it tonight. I was thinking of it somewhere around five or so hours ago so I am glad it had a good shelf life today. I wonder if it kind of punches holes in this whole post in the first place? Ha.
