Bobby is that small kid with a blond hair, while Andrew is the older brother, a brunette one. As your grandsons run toward you, you doubt yourself if it’s Bobby who is the blond kid…. or maybe it’s Andrew….

Such case is called a memory gap, an inevitable and unfortunate occurrence – a sign that you really are getting older. It’s such a poor thing for you forget something dear to you, despite the thousand tries you did just to remember a thing.

To save you from this, a nice recollection of the past will be the answer to you. On the other hand, as what has been mentioned, it can be hard as you grow older, so there are some simple techniques for you to make reminiscence easier….

 

Diary

Keep track. Have a daily record of your activities in your diary or journal. Write the things you do with your loved ones and jot down some of your thoughts. And to make it more fun, insert some images and decorations to make it eye-candy. By doing this, you can just go back to the old pages of your journal to recall previous events.

Pictures

Take pictures. Preserve your photographs in an album or in a scrapbook and write some notes about it.

 Box

 Have a sentimental collection. A lot of sentimental people do this. They collect random items present during a special event that will remind them of it. It can be a candy wrapper, concert tickets, ribbons, candles, etc. Then they secure them in a “memory box” as part of their sentimental collection.

These techniques can help you out in remembering things. While memory gap keeps you from knowing who really is that blond grandson of yours, you can recall important events by following them. For sure, the next time you meet your grandsons,  you’d know who is Bobby and who is Andrew.
