“There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you.” (Maya Angelou)
Treasure your unique collection, and enjoy sharing it with others.” (Matthew Kahn) “Life is a beautiful collection of temporary experiences. When we take the time to ask questions and listen, we find that every person has a fascinating story to tell and an utterly unique perspective from which to tell it.” (Madisyn Taylor) Even two people who have had very similar lives will have slightly different experiences, leading them to a different point of view, so each person remains a treasure trove waiting to be explored. “Each person learns lessons, makes choices, and develops a unique perspective, which only they can claim and share. Sometimes the shy, quiet person at work has the most amazing life story and the biggest dreams, it is up to us to take the time to find out.” (Madisyn Taylor) The sheer variety of paths taken in this world, from farmers to CEOs to homeless people to world travelers, is indicative of how much we can learn from each individual. We are so accustomed to hearing the stories of people in the news that we sometimes lose track of the fact that the random stranger on the bus also has a fascinating story about where they came from and how they got to be where they are. “It’s easy to forget sometimes that everyone has a story to tell if we take the time to listen. “Every person on this planet has a story to tell, something that makes them unique adding to the whole.” (Madisyn Taylor) No one’s life story is boring.” (Holly Salsman) “Never doubt your story has value, and merit, and by sharing it you could help someone else you have never met come to terms with something in their life. so that your story, and a piece of you really, lives on.” (Holly Salsman) To those who have stories to share, share them. Without you so many stories would be lost. What I find myself wondering is how many of these stories remain unshared? Forgotten? And ultimately lost through time?. “The more people that I meet in my life, the more I realize that everyone has a story. If you read a lesson and tell a story in someone else’s words, it won’t have the same impact.” (Gene R. “When we speak of things that we feel deeply, it is more likely that we’ll be able to touch the hearts of others. but rather that telling occurs.” (Mark Sanders) “What is important is not so much what is told. “What could you do better for your children and your children’s children than to record the story of your life, your triumphs over adversity, your recovery after a fall, your progress when all seemed black, your rejoicing when you had finally achieved?” (Spencer W. “You are unique, and there may be incidents in your experience that are more noble and praiseworthy in their way than those recorded in any other life.” (Spencer W. And in that glorious day when our families are together in the eternities, we will already be acquainted.” (Spencer W. Each of us is important to those who are near and dear to us-and as our posterity read of our life’s experiences, they, too, will come to know and love us. But I promise you that if you will keep your journals and records, they will indeed be a source of great inspiration to your families, to your children, your grandchildren, and others, on through the generations. “People often use the excuse that their lives are uneventful and nobody would be interested in what they have done. “We may think there is little of interest or importance in what we personally say or do-but it is remarkable how many of our families, as we pass on down the line, are interested in all that we do and all that we say.” (Spencer W. I don’t have anything that would be newsworthy, but I have stories.” (Tafta Johnson Watson) “Never underestimate the impact that your mere existence can have on another human being.” (Fred Rogers) As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.” (Marianne Williamson) And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. It’s not just in some of us it’s in everyone. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. We are all meant to shine, as children do. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. Your playing small does not serve the world. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. “Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. “Don’t let your circumstance dictate your willingness to share your life experiences.
