How do I?

The current generation doesn't know life without blogs and facebook and twitter and...
Consider though, those of us who grew up without all that. How I wish that we had that technology. Writing in journals was our option. I never could get myself to do that. Someone gave me one and I still have it and it is still blank. So many times I said I should write a book. Now I've reached the point that I don't know how much I can remember. They told you to write on the back of photographs so that you would know who the people were and you thought that was silly. How could you ever forget? But you do. It's not alzheimers, it's just how much information you have loaded into that brain and stuff gets pushed way to the back and it gets harder and harder to find it. I'm on a mission to find it. Forced retirement has left me with a huge feeling of uselessness....no longer are there all these people vying for my attention and waiting with baited breath for my assistance. There is an immense need for me to be assured that I have accomplished many things in my life and I can still make a worthwhile contribution. How do I ?
