Something @ODELL said really resonated with me in this episode, as he spoke about ownership over one's content through #nostr Keeping some sort of diary has always been top of mind, however it's one of those goals that always slips through the cracks. I realized yesterday that nostr is in fact my diary, a historic record of my thoughts, owned by me through private keys and easily passable to my future kids.

How I'd love to scroll through my late grandparents' notes about their world - very cool plan. Just have to keep the public and permanent part of it front of mind when sharing ha.

I like that also. I just need to organize and articulate those thoughts in an organized manner that’s legible. Proof reading helps. I could have been an A student in college but I never proof read anything I wrote so I always wound up with A- or B+ and a note 📝 from the instructor about punctuation. I do enjoy free writing ✍️
As it becomes easier it may benefit us to run our own personal relays to archive these diaries.

Good thought - but also there is power and benefit in maintaining a handwritten personal journal imo. The physical act of writing is meditative for me.
