To quote my mother:

“The main reason I write life stories is to leave a roadmap for living to share with my decendents… To show the way with my morals, family traditions, spiritual values, and the mistakes I’ve made, so our family will know where they came from.

“A lot of people say if they could live life over again, that they would live life exactly the same way.� I would not.� I’d like to do it right. But in my seventh decade, I don’t have that opportunity. The best I can do is tell why.”

God bless you in your efforts to write your own life story. You’ll be forever glad you did!

I write when I can’t not write.� I can only write when compelled to write, not becaue I am told to write or paid to write, although I certainly do believe I’d have a lot more stories out there if I were paid to write, but that would probably also rob me of the joy of writing!
