November, a Time to Celebrate Family Stories
In recognition of November as National Family Stories Month in the United States, eco advocate The Wright Scoop challenges all to reflect on all of the wonderful stories, silly, funny, serious, or scary, that define family, individuality and community legacy – create an eco-legacy of thanksgiving.
Richmond, VA, November 11, 2014 --(PR.com)-- As fall color shifts, the change of season reminds us that November is National Family Stories Month in the United States; and specifically a time in which to reflect on all of the wonderful stories, silly, funny, serious, or scary, that define family, individuality and community legacy – create a sense of thanksgiving.
Whether epic tales that change people’s lives or simple anecdotes which remind us of someone or someplace, some people grew up hearing stories of the things their grandparents and parents had done when they were younger. On the other hand, others have families that are less enthusiastic sharers; but whether you grew up hearing stories or not, rest assured, such stories are certainly, worthy of sharing. So, take this month to sit down with some of the older members of your family and ask them to tell you their stories. Why? When loved ones pass on, their stories keep memories alive and can be a great comfort to all. For, sharing family stories is a great way to stay connected to your relatives as well as create a tradition of sharing and storytelling that can last for generations – create a legacy of thanksgiving.
The Wright Scoop Story -
“Since recording ‘a day in my life’,” says the Wright Scoop – Sylvia Hoehns Wright, “individual, family and community stories were published as a memoir style book Eco-legacy, a millennium woman’s heritage. Through listening to others, I learned that it takes a perspective of CARE - conservation, accountability, recovery and eco efficient - to sustainably land manage family generational property. So, the question is “If you were to record a 'day in your life', what would you identify? Would you be seen as a person who is affected by or contributing to family and/or community legacy – a sense of thanksgiving?”

The Quaker perspective of “caretaker, not owner, of property” is the foundation for this small book. The local author, who is the founder of the Plants of CARE plant recognition program which recommends those that are ecologically sustainable and create a legacy of healthy communities, explores with photographs and verbal descriptions a love for rural community celebrating its legacy maintained through visionary planning and historical designation.
