They influenced your worldview, your habits, your fears, and your dreams—sometimes by what they did, and sometimes by what they didn’t do. Writing about your parents isn’t just a way to honor their role in your life; it’s also a powerful way to understand your own story more fully.Today, we’ll look at how to write honestly about your parents, how to balance truth with compassion, and how to reflect on the legacy they passed on to you—consciously or not. Let’s dive in." "Start writing. Start sharing. Leave your legacy."
