Lore: Git it while you can.... On this Mother's Day I am quickened to say, while things can still be said: Get the stories from your Mom if she is still here. Actually, get all the "lore" that you can from parents or others significant in your life. These are the distillation of wisdom and experience and adventure to hand down. Perhaps a question you always have had and never asked : Why do we do things this way? You know, things of tradition. Or the stuff they have gone through and can share while they are still here: I'm tellin' ya you will NOT get it when they are gone. Even the uncomfortable stuff. I know there is at least ONE PERSON who will thank God that they did. And if it is injury or tragic circumstance, I pray you the peace to make amends if only to forgive. It does not mean you need to be re-exposed to a toxic harmful person or environment. I am simply saying get the knowledge, get the stories, get it while you can or it will be entirely lost. Keep and share the stories of what we are all involved with here now. This will be the stuff of history. You are in it!!  Don't lose what whole generations might have had to strive for. And are striving for now at this crucial moment in time. It is treasure that will not leave you. And in turn, you can pass it on. Lore.
