One of the initial influences in my story keeping is National Public Radio’s very own Story Corps.  The nonprofit has named today The National Day of Listening. I hope you can take time to pause and celebrate the stories of the people you love this weekend. Ask questions. Listen to stories. Celebrate lives!

I remember so well that July day just before my grandma’s 90th birthday. We signed up for an interview where I’d be asking questions about her life in the Story Corps traveling recording studio. My life changed forever.
