I think we all truly want our children and special loved ones to know about us, and almost get to look through our eyes and see how we lived and enjoyed our lives. Most people do not truly give themselves or their children the opportunity to do this. Special occasion journaling doesn’t have to be done daily – you can just create journal posts for your special occasions; for holidays or family reunions, weekends away or anniversaries. Special occasion journaling doesn’t have to become a chore or something that you do everyday. Instead, if you trap important details and memories in these journal entries they become a rich tapestry of your life’s memories.

Traditional journaling vs. digital journaling programs.

In traditional journaling, you took a hard copy book and wrote things in it. A digital journaling program today has morphed into something that you can now collate and relate with your digital memories on your computer. A digital journaling program becomes a tool for directing people through all of the amazing details that can be missed in your photos, videos and other digital memories.

Save your memories and digital journal entries into a single system.

Preferably use a digital journaling program that is contained in the same program that stores your memories. This will make it easy for you and your future generations to find your journal posts and also be able to reference your other memories with your digital journal posts. You should have a system that allows you to save all your memories and your journals into one program helping to powerfully correspond all your digital memories.

Make your digital journal special.

When you’re doing a digital journal post, make it special and personal. Too often, people are just recording occurrences, merely documenting things that happened throughout the day. With a digital journaling program, you have a wonderful opportunity to not only document what you did but also who you did it with and how you did it, how it made you feel and how it changed you and your life. It doesn’t even have to be positive all the time – your digital journal entries can be negative. Give people an opportunity to share in your humanity. Incorporating emotions or feelings is truly an amazing gift for yourself and your future generations.

Protect your digital journal.

You need to protect your digital memories for now and for your future generations. Otherwise, your precious memories could be gone. Implement a three-tiered backup system. With a three-tiered system, your memories are backed up away from your house, backed up at your house and backed up with an automatic backup system offsite. Some great websites offer these services now.

If you implement these strategies, you’ll discover how clearly you get to relive your life. Also, your children and your future generations will really get a chance to relive your life through your eyes. That, in its own right, is an amazing gift, so make sure you make it “true to life” and put in everything that really made it interesting, unique, fun or sad – whatever it may be. These are the keys to creating a rich tapestry of your life’s memories.
