Write your life
January 22, 2012
Ever thought about writing your life story but quietly laughed at yourself for thinking anyone would be interested?
Or have you sat and listened to a relative talk and talk about the "good old days" without realising how quickly time seemed to be passing?
I have been invited be a guest speaker at a local senior's group meeting to encourage its members to write their life stories for future generations and I'm really excited about it.
One of the group members saw a column I wrote in the newspaper about writing an autobiography and contacted me to invite me to speak in May.
Perhaps the prospect of your life story being published for all the world to see is a no-go-zone.
Fear not because publishing is not a requirement of this project - keep it for your family because I can assure you, they want to hear what you have to say and future generations will, too.
Whether you have an incredible story to tell about the war, a lifelong love story or a peak at day to day life in the 21st century to share, put pen to paper and record a life unique to you.
The sky's the limit!
Write about your experiences, share your life lessons, describe the world you live in with unmatched detail or simply scribble and see where your memory takes you.
Give it a go! And don't forget to share your favourite memories with us!
