Calanders are sometimes useful, though not at all necessary. Take the current time in space period we have been interacting with. June 26, 2023, through the present time July 13, 2023. A space of 18 days, made up of 24 hours of time within each day. Weekends included.
Some people are comfortable summarizing each day at the end of the 12- or 24-hour period, or perhaps they reflect and summarized in divisibly equal parts of the 24 hours? Like maybe every 3 or 4 hours. Then again, some may wait to reflect every 6 hours. In this current age of technology, we see that there are those who practice the Just In Time (JIT) method by recording everything that happens via audio or video as it happens.
The impetus for this thought lies in the past, which has and will always influence and direct the present—just as the present will do for the future as it slips into yesterday.
Lest I become more like the past than the present, the direction of this thought needs to make some forward progress.
Thinking or looking back as the vison maybe—to the time Ansel Adams. How Had the past influenced his desire to photograph the countryside? Not limited just the countryside where wheat and corn grow. Nor restricted to cows being slaughtered for beef and coats. What pushed Ansel to photograph countryside that was even bigger than life itself? Understand, that tis template can and might be, applied to most summaries of life. I am directing this query towards Ansel as his reflections / summaries were not simple nor easy. They required months, probably even years to organize, let alone share with the world.
Which raises another question, “Why do some people go to the end of the world just to share their visions?
