Happy Birthday to Me

"Only count the birthdays you remember."
When reviewing his life, The Chemical Buddha realized he only remembered bits and pieces of two or three birthdays. His trip down memory lane, led to what would become one of his most powerful insights. Because as The Chemical Buddha grew older, he used it to not only cope with the inevitable creep of age. (Although he insisted he was only 2 or 3.) Eventually, he started applying this line of thinking to other areas of his life, creating what he called a 'memory of convenience.' His new take on memory allowed him to remember only what he wanted to or what was convenient for him to remember. Like people who owed him money or drugs or sex. More importantly, it also allowed him to forget what he owed people.
What do you conveniently remember and forget?
What big promise have you made to yourself, but not done yet?
