Every family has a story to tell, they just don’t know how to capture and save them for future generations. Michele Trent knows firsthand that sharing family stories keeps history alive. With her book, “Wisdom Is a Gift” she offers a guide on how to take action, uncover and preserve irreplaceable memories and family legacies before they are completely forgotten.
“Everyone has a story filled with precious moments, exciting adventure, and hard-earned wisdom,” the author states. “However, unless we do something to save those stories, they are eventually lost when we pass on.”
“Wisdom Is a Gift” equips families with step-by-step instructions, an abundance of conversation-starting questions, and the encouragement needed to complete their family story project. The book presents simple and practical ways on how to capture stories by having meaningful conversations. The author also shares her experience and tips so readers can easily create cherished keepsakes from the stories that can be treasured for generations.
“If COVID-19 did anything, it made us slow down, reevaluate what's important, and consider that life really can turn on a dime,” Trent reflects. “If someone has ever thought they ‘should’ preserve family stories, there's no better time than now. The technology is available, we just need to set aside the time and embark with a plan. Life is fragile.”
“Wisdom Is a Gift” invites readers to reflect, reminisce and gain perspective about life. It encourages everyone to engage in heartfelt conversations that create generational connections.
