Family History

Do you ever think about Family History?

Finding names of ancestors and all that?

Well....does the Family History....have to happen in the past?

I had the thought come to me today during devotional.
For the speaker mentioned having a responsibility to family history.

And I wondered.
Could that apply to our family. Right now?
Instead of searching for names in our past...could we not interact with our family now. In the present?
For what is the present, but the prelude to the past?

Are we spending as much time with our family as we could?
Are we making the moments, memories recordable so that future generations can look at them?
Could a responsibility to Family History...be recording a journal, a record of your life and the experiences you go through?
Are we making the effort to try and connect with cousins, aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, grandparents, great grandparents, siblings, parents by having family get togethers?
Could a responsibility to Family History mean having a reunion to gather family the together, to tell stories, share memories, and work out problems?

I guess Family History...is whatever you think it should be....as long as an effort is made to connect with family in some way some how.

Until you next see these words;
I'll be watching the leaves.
Enjoy the day!

The Dream....

I remember I was drinking a beverage from a metal straw...that kept the drink cold.
