I believe another important way we "tell" our stories, other than writing them down, is by the way we lives our lives. I've thought about events in my life that I haven't thought of in years. They have been lost in the busy life of a mother/teacher. I appreciate the opportunity to remember "me".
So true! Often we tell the stories that we want others to hear and forget the important ones that make us who we are.
ReplyDeleteThere's a line in an old Jim Croce song that goes "But after all, it's what we've done that makes us what we are."
ReplyDeleteIt can be really refreshing to look back where we've been to gain perspective on where we want to go from here.
