Have you started thinking about writing your own memoir? I believe that we should start collecting materials when we are still young. We often heard that a lot of people said, 'when I am retired, I'll start writing my book.'
Sometimes, you'll never know what will happen in the future. Would you actually live long enough to start writing. What if you started having some sort of disease that prohibits you from writing. So, now is the right time to write.
I always believe that each and everyone of us has a unique experience in our own lifetime. In addition to that, we also have our own unique ideas or thoughts on something. Those ideas, thoughts and experience need to be documented.
I think that we are never too early to start writing our memoir. Sometimes, if we wait too long, we might forget a lot of details. Yes, perhaps the perspective would be different, but at least, we would still be able to capture a lot of things better.
We often think that when we are older, or when we are retired, we would have much time to do a lot of our own things, do whatever we want. But sometimes that may not be true. If we think we can write it now, then we'd better start writing.
Besides, how far can we remember about our own childhood? We can vaguely remember it right? Later own, those memories are going to fade, like the markings on the bane in Lord of the Rings. Better start jotting it down before it completely leave us.

Yes Nisah, you are absolutely correct. You've motivated and inspired me to start my own blog which I have not told anyone and you are the first person to know about it. I've started writing two days ago, both in Malay and English. The truth is I was kind of shy to let people I know read them. You may visit them at http://nazhatulshima.blogspot.com/ and http://nazhatulshimanolan.blogspot.com/
You have started Puan Nisah. Please keep on writing.
u inspired me :)
