"When anything truly important happens in your life, wherever you happen to be, find a stick in the immediate vicinity and write the occasion and the date on it. Keep them together, protect them. There shouldn't be too many; sort through them every few years and separate the events that remain genuinely important from those that were but no longer are. You know the difference. Throw the rest out.
When you are very old, very sick, or sure there's not much time left to live, put them together and burn them. The marriage of the sticks."
