Unattended

B.W. said "Things left unattended, decay". Wow - that principal applies to many things, vacant houses, human body, food, money, spirituality .......

While I am a procrastinator, at least I attend to the task - only in a "just in time" basis. Attention really means recognizing the relationship between time and decay for the object in question. The rapidity of decay as a function of time means greater attention earlier is required.

There is a "decay theory" for memory - that time will fade a memory. Attending to the memory must therefore slow down the decay.

Hence a side advantage of blogging :)
