Life is good when we remember the best of times and the hard times if anyone cares to listen.
I'm always proud of myself to have cherished all the long stories ,even if repeated several times by my grandparents to my own parents
I tell stories like them to my grandkids! :)
I so agree with you, dj.
It is a good thing for parents to share family stories with their children, that is their history.
They need to know where they came from.
When my grandparents were alive, they wouldn’t talk to us about the past.
Might have been too painful but we needed to hear it anyway.
