Begin doing what you want to do now. We are not living in eternity. We have only this moment, sparkling like a star in our hand – and melting like a snowflake.
- Marie Beyon Ray
This quote is a powerful reminder that we need to act now to record and preserve our life stories. I meet people all the time who tell me that they fully intend to write their story but they’re too busy right now. Or I’m told that their mom’s story is fascinating but they can’t find the time to sit down and record it. Sadly, time slips away and before we know it the memories are lost forever.
