Memories of Our Ancestors

I was not excited to see "Coco" when I saw its trailer.  I thought, "How terrible that Disney is trying to copy The Book of Life!"  But I have been proven wrong in my first impression!  Coco is such a beautiful movie. 

Its message was that keeping your ancestors' memories alive is what the real paradise is for those who have passed on. 

I have talked about writing down the stories of my ancestors.  I think it's high time to start.  When I was a kid, my parents would tell us stories of their parents and siblings.  Many times, we asked that they repeat certain stories.  I've told my kids those stories and they have found them amusing.  I bet their kids and their kids' kids will too.
