Your Living Years

Are you at that age yet when you ask, "Who am I? What do I know about my family's history?" Of course, the best source to go to is your parents, your grandparents or if you're lucky, your great-grandparents. A lot of times, people will get just the basic information like names, dates and places, but nothing in-depth.

You had a best friend in high school. So what were some fun things did you do after school? Then, what about your mother's best friend in school? Or who was her favorite aunt? This book is written in chronological order to help you navigate through questions that you can ask anyone in your family. It also is a great way for you to start your own personal history. Then these stories can be passed down from generations to generations. Wouldn't you love to read your great-grandmother's words about how life was for her in her day. One added bonus is if you have a difficult time speaking to people, pick out a few questions before you go to a social engagement. People love to talk about themselves and to have some simple questions about their lives, they will feel that you are really interested in them. A great icebreaker.
