WHY HAVEN’T YOU STARTED WRITING YOUR LIFESTORIES?
I am a native Floridian - not many of us left - 7th generation. I have three wonderful sons - ages 27, 25, 22 and A beautiful daughter in law. I also have the most amazing husband that a girl could ever dream of having. Life is wonderful!

What would your story tell of you if you only recorded your dreams? We write our life stories from what we did or felt on the outside - why should we discount what happened on the inside, in our subconscious?
Write about what you didn’t accomplish in life. This tells more about you then what you did accomplish.
Write only what is in your head - those disjointed thoughts and ideas and dreams that parade through your mind constantly.
Write about how your life would change if you were a different sex? Would you be a different person? Would you still believe what you now believe?
Think about this. Do you initiate things or do you simply respond to outer actions? Make a list.
How old is your self? How old do you feel at this moment? What do you think your perfect age is?
There are dominant metaphors in every society that animate that society. What are the metaphors (or stories) you are telling yourself that may be holding you back?
