There are many topics and stories I will share with
you in hopes that they will inspire you to save your heritage for yourself and
your family and all the generations that will follow. As I mentioned before, I
am writing a book on my blog and with diligence and patience, it will be available
as soon as possible.
And now that all the gifts have been opened, put in
their proper places, don’t forget to put something of this Christmas and
holiday season into your museum, wherever it is located or what it is in. If
you need to put it away for later, that’s fine, but don’t forget about it. Jot
down on your calendar what and where you saved it, so when you are ready to
display it, it will be at your fingertips.
Life moves so fast sometimes, memories can become
blurred like the scenery outside the car window as you speed along the highway.
When you have to stop, do not look down at your phone, radio or any other thing
that distracts you from looking out the window. Take that moment to take in the
sight before you, taking a deep breath, stretching your arms and hands, and
mostly your eyes, for there are so many things that we don’t see that need to
be seen. So as you wait for the light to switch or take your turn at the stop
sign, just look around.
As a gesture of appreciate and encouragement, I offer
this, one of my most favorite songs that heartens you to look around. These words
and melody always made me feel good and that is what I wish you to feel. So take
this moment to listen and look around.
