Thanks for Reading

I really like to write.  For me, its a better way to communicate than speaking.  I can form a few thoughts on a topic. My hope is that my sharing those thoughts will cause you to think about something, perhaps in a way you didn't think about it before.  

But my main driving force behind this happened because of my genealogy research into my own family.  It was obvious that there were so many personal feelings about themselves and their lives they never wanted to share.  

It's my personal belief that my paternal grandmother got involved (possibly sex?) with grandfather before marriage, maybe ended up pregnant, with a hasty marriage.  She was always reluctant to share when I asked questions, saying the past should be left alone.  My paternal grandfather was born to his unmarried mother.  

So while maybe she thought the past should be left alone, sharing might have changed the course of others' lives.  

I'm still pondering sharing some of my own experiences.  I considered writing fiction around the facts and making it into a novel, but I'm not sure its worthy of all that. But maybe it will be a good project over the winter!   We shall see.

Thank you, reader, for taking the time.  I like knowing something I've written has been read, but even if it wasn't,  I'd still write! Cuz that's who I am.
