You don't know what you've lost until it's something you want to re-live or remember.

I go back through photos and videos of my kids and it reminds me that I succeeded at something worthwhile and difficult for at least a period of my life. They had a blessed childhood.

Food or selfies and even holiday snaps mean little. But the kids... that's the raison d'être.

Overall it's these photos and videos that are my strongest motivation for the paranoia-level backup setup I have.
