Subject: [BLACK-L] who knows what tomorrow holds."
Date: Fri, 26 Nov 1999 11:01:06 EST
(concerning our own journals for our descendants-genealogy stuff):
" To keep us all from feeling overwhelmed, the teacher suggested that
we take a
piece of paper and on it list the year we were born through the current
year,
ie. 1950, 1951...1998.
Then for each year write only one sentence about what you
may remember that happened to you in that year, or what your family can
remember about you. Then, take one day a week, possibly Sun. and write a
paragraph of detail from that one sentence in a particular year. Do that
every
Sun for one year and you have 52 paragraphs of the chronology of your life!
It's not difficult or very time consuming but we need to start now. And
what a
valuable treasure it will be for our progenitors. As it becomes a habit,
you
will find yourself adding more and more as time goes by. And, we need to
start
now--who knows what tomorrow holds."
