I rarely scroll facebook now but a memory about "autophagy" popped and I checked it out. Discovered 13 March is a day I actually had a decade of highly interesting memories which could have been lost if not for facebook.
Here's the list:
2020 - engrossed with the impending lockdown due to global pandemic.
2019 - added 3 new selfie to album Silver Vixen. For my eyes only.
2018 - added photos to album Rosal. Or Jasmine.
2017 - added photos to album Shrine of the Divine Word. Lenten scenes.
2016 - entered my new vocabulary - autophagy.
2015 - sumptuous lunch at Handaan. Pagkaing Pilipino.
- added photos to album My daughters Jean and Tish.
2014 - entered an image to album A Walk in the Rain.
- Pope Francis got Vatican finances straightened up.
- Pope Francis marked first year of Papacy with joy and laughter.
- NBC reported Pope Francis has got Anglicans to convert and US
Catholics strengthened in the faith.
- Pope Francis has a twit and a selfie.
- Syria's forgotten children of war.
2013 - 115 Cardinals in Conclave, including our own Cardinal Chito Tagle
- shared a nostalgic video of my daughters and my niece singing
Lean on Me.
2012 - A quip from Fr. Mike - "Forgiveness, when given, creates an event of
cosmic proportion. It restores the state of being back to how it was
originally created."
2011 - shared a picture of my elder daughter at the University of the
Philippines' Sunken Garden. That's the photo up there.
Feeling mushy.

I keep a journal. And I have those instead of facebook.

I had diaries also in the past but scrapped them out when the online journaling became the in-thing. Same with photo albums.

@eileenleyva Will never get tired of them. Still have my journals and my photos are printed and attached to those journals. But now I’m into digital planners. But i still use an apple pen to write on my digital planner, i still use digital stickers and i attach my photos in it. Never Facebook for me.

@toniganzon To each his own. My daughter prefers instagram. My sister has her storybook. I just have facebook where my friends can view my thoughts and pictures.

Look how time flies.
A lot has changed but everything feels the same.

I guess in the grand scheme of things, everything is suppose to be what it is suppose to be.

@allen0187 Pope Francis just refuted gay couples by refusing to give them church blessing. In the grande scheme of things, truth must be upheld.

Pope Francis is limping. But you are correct, he still carries the warmest smile.
