Why I Want to Write

I regret the days when I was oblivious to the times when my mother, my aunts and uncles, godparents, older cousins, would tell me stories about our family history. I wish I could go back in time and bring back those days, but no matter what I do, they will only be memories. For my mother, my aunts and uncles, my godparents, my older cousins have all passed away. They are all gone now, but the memories of those stories will live. I am committed to preserving those stories about our family heritage, for my children to know. I want my children to get to know their mother, where she came from, and what her life was before them. I want my children to have a written memoir of their family history and heritage, because nothing and no one lasts forever..
