Welcome to #52 Stories!
Many people believe that it takes a lot of time and work to write their life story and feel that the task is just too big. Because of that, they never start. But sharing memories of your life does not have to be a big, involved effort. Imagine how much easier the task of writing about your life might be if you were to focus on writing about just one topic each week. It doesn’t matter if you write a few paragraphs, a single page, or several pages. The important thing is that you write something. Anything is better than nothing at all.
Now imagine if someone provided you with one question to write about each week for 52 weeks. At the end of just one year you will have created your own life story to share with your children and your future posterity. You will never be forgotten because your own life story will bear witness to your existence. Add some pictures, and you can make it even more inviting to read.
Below are 52 questions. Each week for one year, take one question and write as much or as little as you want. Don’t worry about how much you write for each question, but do write something. Questions do not need to be answered in any special order.
When you are done, go to FamilySearch.org, and add your stories to your family tree. By adding your stories to your own branch of your family tree, you are assured that your life story will be safe and secure for future generations. Your great-grandchildren will be able to read them and enjoy learning about your life and getting to know who you are. Future generations will be glad that you took the time to write something about your life and that you left them with such a valuable legacy. - by Mark Anderson for FamilySearch.org
