 Footers serve two very important roles: citation and non destructive updates. Citation is used in the [Zettelkasten](#Zettelkasten), to help link a note to its source material.
 
+Footers also make for great **non destructive updates** to notes.

Think of it as sedimentary rock, or a really lightweight [VCS](#version-control-system).

 Reflection is a critical component to the value of this vault, and so one day a week **must** be carved out to do reflection. This shouldn't take more than thirty minutes or so, but it does need to happen once a week, so choose what works best for you.
