Hi blog family!
Do you have any pictures of yourself as a kid? Well if your like me, probably not. Although i was lucky enough to see some before my birth grandma died, I did not have any before foster care. My foster mother did take some and the school took one every year from 7-18 but, a house fire destroyed all the photo's, so i have my senior picture, some old modeling pictures and photo's after 21..
Pictures are crucial to preserving your history. I love to view photo's of friends and family's, it tells alot. You can see how people dressed during that time, if they were happy, sad or distant. photo's reveal alot about a person and their history.
If you don't have any pictures of yourself it's ok, start today taking pictures of yourself, your family and your friends or places you have been. It is never too late to record for the future!
When we are long gone from this earth, a picture will share our story, even if there is no name on it, it can say alot. It is important for your grandchildren or nieces and other family to have a record that you were here, a picture or video is great for that. so next time someone says smile for the camera, don't shy away you are recording a piece of history, you!
Don't dwell on what you don't have, start taking pictures or video of you now. vacations, special graduations, click, click, click!!
