Sharing Memories ~ The Ultimate Gift

Each member of every family, regardless of age or generation, has interesting stories to tell, views and opinions to voice, and meaningful information to share. Unfortunately, very few are taking the time to ask or listen to one another, and it has created a seemingly irreversible communication gap between generations. Tragically, resentment is building at a time when we need each other more than ever. The past can be lost forever, and our family values and family heritage are escaping and becoming virtually non-existent for too many of us.

The good news is... the situation is far from hopeless if you seek the help of a Professional StoryKeeper.  A StoryKeeper can help to reestablish the closeness and importance of 'family' through casual, one-on-one, interview-style conversations. These unintimidating conversations are digitally audio-recorded in the comfort of one's home, then presented on CD. StoryKeepers know how to evoke memories, and know exactly how, when, and what to ask in order to gather and organize one's thoughts and memories.

Listening to our elder loved ones' life stories would surely be a fascinating and tremendous gift all by itself, but imagine how much you would learn about each other if all family members were to join in on this experience and have their own thoughts and memories recorded. Think of the newfound respect and admiration you would have for each other. Each person would finally have the opportunity to speak candidly and openly about anything they choose. Possessing your loved ones’ perspectives on life and their personal life experiences is a priceless gift no matter what age, an heirloom of sorts that will surely be treasured as it is passed down from generation to generation. Imagine the young ones in the family 50 years from now hearing themselves providing their perspective on life as a child.

Thousands of people die every day, each taking with them a lifetime of memories, never to be shared with their loved ones. Think of the lost historical facts and events, genealogical information. StoryKeepers provide this unique and powerful opportunity to also share priceless knowledge and wisdom pertaining to marriage, raising children, operating a business and so much more. Imagine being given the opportunity to speak directly to your loved ones, a chance to let them know exactly how you feel about them. No gift can possibly compare to this moment. 

Why rely on old photographs to tell the stories of one's life when they can tell them themselves, as loved ones thumb through the photo albums today and years from now? One's stories and voice can literally live on forever in digital audio, allowing future generations to hear their ancestors telling their life stories in their own voice, personality, and sense of humor, as they relive their lives through good times and bad. Make a difference in a loved one's life today.
