In Then Out

I think it's funny how sometimes, things just happen..

I've been one to have done a lot of improvements over the years. Not all of them have been easy, and some of them have been very long to take effect but eventually you do make improvements. I think this is for sure a natural evolution of us humans as we get older, at least the ones that are competent. I know a few people who, as they've gotten older, have grown somehow more helpless and less competent which is both sad as well as scary.. but I digress!

One of the things that I've gotten better at is thinking of ideas, especially for posts on Hive, and writing them down. There are sometimes though where I'm just NOT in the right environment to be able to make it last so that I can write it down.. most recent example is the shower! :D

I was in the shower just a few minutes ago.. and I had two post ideas that popped into my head! I was pretty stoked. Finished up the shower, got the clothes and all of a sudden went to go write down what I was thinking that seemed like a good idea.. to only have them completely gone LOL. That's the bitch of things, sometimes!

This is one of those funny things that happens. We will think of a great idea, a great place to go, some great food to buy or cook and if we don't write the damn thing down, it is gone before we know it, to be tucked away deep in the memory banks up in the ol' noggin. That's a bit of the nature of life in the year 2025.. but I think it's both comical as well as frustrating.

To put it in a different and more important perspective.. it would be funny if we knew all of the genius ideas that people had over the years, that were completely forgotten or lost for one reason or another. We talk a lot about the genius of people that have done things, but what about the genius that is entirely lost or wasted? LOL I think that's a travesty! It's for sure got to be a lot of things.. but again I think this is just the nature of being human.

With the reliance on technology and pushing AI to attempt to replace us flesh vessels, we for sure have to figure out a way to fight back against it but not lose ourselves. I don't think I would ever fall victim to the notion that I won't be able to forget an idea ever again if I connect myself to some dystopian brain implant meant to make you the best thing in the world!!!!111 Yet every single piece of data will be used to track, surveil and keep people suppressed and in check if we allow these crazy things to take hold.

To bring it back from the edge of the doom abyss though.. it's important that we have the right perspective on it as well. Sure we can forget things, but we have to also make sure not to beat ourselves up about it. It's okay to forget things, hopefully they aren't important things like a kid.. but forgetting things nonetheless is bound to happen. I'm glad it's something innocent and small that I can laugh and complain about, instead of something important!

What about you, do you have ideas that you come up with, try to remember them so you can write them down but forget? What happened? Let me know in the comments!
