Memoir with Mary Anne Benedetto on the Next DivaTalkRadio

ME? Write a MEMOIR? I don’t KNOW the first thing about WRITING! What would I WRITE? Who would READ something about me? Why would ANYONE be interested?

Mary Anne Benedetto, our next guest on DivaTalkRadio, has the answers to these questions. She KNOWS everyone has SOMETHING to share.  Your loved ones will love reading about your feelings, your life, the funny things that happened to you as a child, the wisdom you’ve gained, and even sad times.

Mary Anne states on her website:  “Have you ever considered that you’d like to write some of the significant memories from your lifetime to share with family members, grandchildren, great-grandchildren and beyond?  Many people frequently think about it, but never take the time to tackle what seems to be an overwhelming project.”

Our memories will be very important to our children, our grandchildren, even our great-grand children, and our friends.

LEGACY OF MEMORIES

I wish I had told my story
Like my children asked me to.
While I could still remember
What they wanted me to do.

They were seeking our family history, 
Anything I’d be willing to share.
I always meant to get started on that project,
It wasn’t that I didn’t care.

I was just busy with so many other tasks, 
I had far too much on my mind
To zero in on my memories
For the loved ones I’d leave behind.

I could have told some humorous tales, 
Pertinent occurrences, things I had learned and more.
I’d have clued them in on stories they’d never have known
If I hadn’t provided the key to my special memories door.

But it’s too late for me now. 
My eyes are closed–there’s nothing more I can do,
Except to tell others–don’t take your stories to the grave!
Leave behind a remembrance of you.
