- to get an overview of your life and some perspective
- to have a record of all the people, places and events you have known
- to excavate from memory countless experiences you have forgotten
- to provide a legacy for your children, grandchildren and their children, a first-hand account of what it was like to live in your lifetime
- to help historians understand this period
- to understand yourself better, as a product of these times, and of the important people and events in your life.
- to have the hugely enjoyable and compelling experience of remembering so much
more than you expected, and re-creating a kind of mental video of your whole life
