Auto-biographical list-making is a pathway to rediscovering fun or poignant memories, visualizing dreams for the future, and keeping a record of books, films, music, and all your other experiences that have touched you and made you who you are today. It's your LISTOGRAPHY. I have been creating lists for years and I began to notice that most of them were autobiographical in nature. I would often come across a memory, like running into it on the street, and tell myself "I've really got to write that down" before it's gone. Making an autobiographical list is somewhat like meditating. You have to still your mind and hone in on a time period and let it recall what was probably efficiently filed away. In this way, making a list augments your brain's storage capacity. If it's in a list, then it's never lost. And once you've started the list, it's easy to add to. A completed list on, let's say, "songs that remind you of loves from your past" might bring up feelings and memories in the unique way a photograph can and sometimes even more so. I can't make a list on "my favorite games from childhood" without remembering what it was like to hit the white cubes nervously out of the "Don't Break The Ice" game or my neighbor's dad conducting "Simon Says". So autobiographical listing can ignite our memory of experience which may include loves, fears, successes, etc. All of these pieces make a map of who we are: an autobiography. I've used practical lists over the years to help inspire me and remind me to get the things done. Even a "to do" list can be autobiographical. Making a list of "all the countries I want to visit" fills me with the hope that I might get there someday. I once made a list of "things I don't want to forget about my grandma". As I sat there thinking of things to list, I remembered much about her that might have slipped away. In a way, I felt as though I was honoring her. I realized that some types of lists are just that, a way to memorialize. I started making lists when I was young. I didn't realize it at the time, but I was compensating for memory loss. I struggled with anxiety due to some trauma from my past. Certain parts of my brain grew stronger, like empathy, reading people, and fight or flight, but my memor
