What You Gain by Sharing the Unspoken

We all want to belong. We’re all constantly learning and growing. But even in today’s hurricane of information, there’s still so much we don’t talk about! 

We rely on our elders for guidance.

But too often, we shy away from sharing our personal stories, especially the emotional ones, the ones involving mistakes or shame. We feel vulnerable. 

But those stories can help others! Human feelings are universal.

I wish my father had explained why he left behind his family in New York, a family I never got to know. I wish I understood more about his creative process when he was engineering his inventions. I wish he had taught me about money. But he’s gone now.

I wish my mother had been more open about her experiences as a teenage girl when I was slogging through my adolescence. I wish she had told me about her divorce before I was going through one of my own, feeling full of shame.

There’s no better gift than sharing your thoughts and experiences honestly with the people you love!

And you’ll likely feel the benefits too! In the limited capacity of our heads, thoughts loom large and heavy. Once spoken, they are smaller and lighter. And you and your readers will find that you’re not alone in your feelings.

Consider creating your Personal History or a short memoir with Stories to Last. There’s no reason to wait!
