    I’m with you, but I think there’s a happy medium. Like, I don’t need to take pictures of the food I get at a restaurant or a selfie at every single place I go. But I’ve always enjoyed looking back at pictures of people I know or am related to living their lives. I’m older and my parents are both dead. They took a lot of pictures on slides, and I recently scanned them - about 1000 pictures - to jpg. So many wonderful pictures, some I’ve never seen.

    But even then, my mom took a bunch of pictures of trees from the car window while they were on a driving trip. Completely unremarkable.

      I’m so glad that several years ago (my mid 20s) I got into the habit of taking selfies sometimes. I’m never going to be that young again, and when I want to see what I looked like young it’ll be too late to go take a quick pic.
