On other days, my mind is on every part of my world. I have to either ignore my imagination, which risks losing good idea’s or inspiration. Or, I can look for ways to store the data and store thousands of folded up noted from my back pocket.I have made all the mistakes. I have lost and forgotten all my best ideas. I am sure the are the best even though I cannot remember them.
