Keep a memory without a photograph

Use words, a sketch or a small contextual note when no image exists or photography was unwelcome.

Try this

Choose three concrete details: something you saw, something that happened, and what you personally noticed.
Avoid filling gaps with imagined dialogue. Mark a remembered phrase as approximate if you are not sure of the exact words.

A worked example

“The café had yellow chairs. We moved inside when it rained. I remember being glad we had nowhere else to rush.”

An invented example to adapt, not a real exchange or a script you have to follow.

Before you leave it here

The note need not become a reconstruction of every minute. Keep uncertainty visible and leave out details that belong to someone else’s private story.

This is a voluntary planning exercise. Keep your notes private, adapt the language, and leave any question unanswered. It does not require Ourling or a purchase.
