# Capturing moments of joy I'm currently (early 2025) working hard to build a course about Knowledge management ([[Knowledge Management for Beginners]]). It takes a lot of my headspace. It's tiresome, but there's so much more going on in other areas of my life. I always take pleasure spending time with my kids. I don't know if it's because I love photography, but I always focus unconsciously on "picture moments", moments that would make for a perfect picture. A big and happy smile of my little one, a weird face my daughter makes, or the frowning face of my (almost) 15yo son. These are moments I cherish. I'm rarely able to actually "capture" those, like I would with a camera, or with ideas in my notes. But I hold on to those moments intensely. I try to capture those in some way, often in writing, telling my future self about what I'm grateful for today. It's an exercise that I found to be joyful. It creates "ever-lasting" memories I can go back to any time. It's not a replacement for actual memories and pictures, but it's still something. Bits and bytes that capture a life's journey. Time flies. Life's way too short. I want more of those moments. Always. More. Knowledge Management really helps and supports me in all the aspects of my life. It's always there, ready to help me retain whatever I want forever. And there's a lot more value and meaning in there than in many other things that people shout about all day long.
