We spend so much time documenting our Ancestors and going back in time, that recently I decided to document my own life story, apologies it will be boring for some, but its more about documenting things about ourselves before its too late!

I asked my children where did I work when I first left school and neither of them knew the answer, so this prompted my story.

If nothing else, I hope this might prompt us to write about ourselves a bit more.

I did this myself a few years ago. Surprising what you can remember about things that happened so many years ago. Problem is I only wrote down the good things. I've recently gone back and revived it to make it more true to life.

Good for you. Don't forget to go back and read it periodically. It helps remember pieces that were forgotten.

Thank for such a kind way of prompting the ones behind the lenses ❤️ .. it’s like the phrase (how will they know?..Our minds keep rolling with …oh they’re gonna “know” (priceless Keepsakes)
