I used to blog at least once a week, even if no one was reading it, then Facebook entered my life, now though ,you can link your Facebook to you blog! Hopefully I can get back into the habit of blogging.
I listened to a Radio Lab Shorts this week about how people express themselves with writing and brain usage and how it changes with illnesses and age and it got me to thinking if you can change the end result with work, kind of like sit ups for the brain! So, I vow to try and push myself through writing and Reading and just plian ol' learning something new.
My grandmother on my dads side was very much in full capacity of her learning and brain use until she died at 93 due to nothing health related and my grandparents on my moms side have had memory issues so I do see how this could effect me. I also remember my dads mom being a reader and I do credit her mental health to this fact.
I guess what all this means to me is I need to push my brain just a little harder,and hey, if it doesn't help what could it hurt?
