 |
No one else will do it for you. |
| |
|
 |
It is a pleasure to share one’s memories—and a treasure to hear
them told. |
| |
|
 |
No one else knows the stories of your life quite like you do. |
| |
|
 |
You owe it to yourself and to your family—the family that came
before you and the family that will come after you. |
| |
|
 |
Let your descendents know that you were a real person and not just
one name on a family tree. |
| |
|
 |
The stories you heard from your parents and grandparents will live
on…you are the link in this chain. |
| |
|
 |
In sharing your life challenges and accomplishments, you teach and
inspire your descendents. And you give them the benefit of
learning from your mistakes! |
| |
|
 |
You give young people a glimpse into a not-so-distant past that
may seem foreign to them. |
| |
|
 |
The values you hold dear can live on in your descendents. |
| |
|
 |
Looking back on your life can help you realize how much you’ve
achieved and the important role you’ve played in the lives of
others. |
| |
|
 |
You honor your parents by telling your descendents about them and
details of their lives. |
| |
|
 |
Glory is fleeting, but obscurity is forever. |
