Hey, so I just spent the last 2 hours on that website reading about extraterrestrials to recorded history. Thanks for posting, what a great find for me. I have been despairing recently over how jaded I feel with my typical websites and started to branch out today with this site and in the space of a few hours I've already found quality content.

So do you write in your boxes or color them in to illustrate time ticking away? I counted up to my current age and looked at all the empty boxes in front of that and couldnt help but feel it wasn't that much time. But it feels immensely long looking back at what would be filled in for my own life calendar.

Currently it's just blank.

I have been thinking about using a marker to fill in the weeks that are history -- but something about it seems wrong. The weeks are still there in my memory, and I would argue that how I view my life and memories change as I get older. Therefor to say that a week is finished or should be colored a specific way is to stop thinking about what I have done and what was and wasn't good.

I prefer to just stare at it, and the imagine the memories of my life in every single box.
