LifeCatching

Tuesday, June 28, 2011

You might have heard that material things can be replaced, but nothing can replace family. Family is an important part of our lives. They are the foundation of who we are, where we come from, our traits and our history. They are those special memories we build and pass down to our children.
Memories are often captured with cameras and put into a scrap book to be viewed and shared, time after time. After time, however; those pictures end up being discolored and faded. Familiar faces now become unfamiliar, places and dates are no longer recognized. Keeping those memories alive are what we want for future generations. Great stories told start with memories being passed down through the family.
So how can we keep the magic alive? We can do that by capturing the memories on video. Imagine your children not just looking at your picture, but actually seeing you and hearing you tell your story, in your own words, about things such as, what it was like for you growing up. What were some of the challenges, how did you meet their mom, or dad? Where were some of the places you might have visited? The possibilities are endless, and priceless!
