A legacy is often thought of as something that is ‘left’, a tangible heirloom, a gift or unique discovery. Rarely do we take time in our own lives to consider the creation of probably our greatest gift; our memories, our lives, our experience, our life story will be valuable to family and friends.
Our family ties can be lost when we emigrate, fall out, become ill or become forgotten in the midst of time. Forget me Not courses can help you to capture memories that are important or special to you. Whether you are there or not your family and friends will have something they can reflect on, preserve your special and precious memories. Everyone has a story to tell even if the audience is small. Future generations will thank you for writing yours.
It happens to us all, memories fade and things are forgotten. Stimulating the memory can help to rediscover things that you have misplaced in your mind. It is never too late. It may seem daunting but a step by step approach offered by the course will gradually build your story.
Angela and Sara believe we are all personal historians with an interesting story to tell. Our life and family history become more important as we get older or become ill, not just to ourselves but for others.
