Finding ways to keep your memories in concrete form becomes more important as you get older. Putting up photo frames and having mementos is a useful way to do this, especially if you are an abstract photographer. It is important to have things like this around you as your memory tends to fade as you age and stop you from forgetting.
A more modern approach is using digital photo frames. They can store hundreds of images, to be used many times over. They also mean that you do no need to have your photos developed into hard copies to enjoy them. You can print them out many times, and still have amazing quality. You can also get them to show however you want.
There are more novelty items like magnetic frames, which mean you can view your mementos whenever you like. These are fairly cheap and lightweight and can be put up almost anywhere. They also come in many different patterns and designs.
If static images just do not give you the same sense of nostalgia, a DVD will probably compensate for that. Here you can see people in action and actually view specific events. If you are a collector of DVDs you should make sure they are correctly labeled and put in chronological order if you want to make sense out of them later on. Sometimes, it is also a good idea to note who features in them.
Music can also transport you in time. Songs also have memories attached to them and can make you feel extremely nostalgic when you listen tot hem. It is also nice to record your kids voices as they change over the years. This kind of thing is great to pass on when they grow up. Keep them somewhere safe and always have back ups made in case something happens to the original.
Little trinkets and personal items are invaluable to have. Journals and diaries enable you to record exact feelings and facts, and allow you to re read them after time has passed, and to recall what happened during those days. Many a journal has been published or made into a feature film, based on the lucid descriptions the author took the time to write down. These can be really personal at the time, but useful sources of information as well.
Everyone has memories. People need to be able to recount their younger days and sometimes need help to fill in the blank spaces. If you have an abstract photographer in the family it might be better to invest in DVDs or CDs.
