FAMILY HISTORY DRAMA : Unbelievable True Stories

Whether it’s great lives or great tragedies, or just showing up for the adventure, history that is told without being felt is minimized. Like food that is eaten without being tasted. What’s the point? Tell the stories. Feel the people. Learn the lessons. Be a better you because of them. Don’t keep reinventing the wheel. Will you get some of the story wrong? Yes. Will the size of the fish increase each time? Probably. Will there be a different perspective? Of course. So what. When we stand on the shoulders of the past we can see with greater clarity into our future. True stories, well told, can inspire, caution, entertain, and instruct. If you judge the Yesterdays of history by today’s standards, then you deserve the same. If you erase it, you will repeat it.
