Immortalizing my memories with steemit and a blockchain

Immortalizing my memories with steemit & the blockchain
Our memory is quite fickle one may forget what is recent and important however they are a lot of memories of times gone by which may revisit us.

I have fond memories of my childhood which keep coming back to me and help in in keeping my inner child alive.
One of the fondest memories is listening to stories from my mother and grandmother.
In those wonderful days there was no internet and no digital media either.
Yet my grandmother and mother had a bag full of stories.
These were stories told to my grandmother by her grandmother.
My grandmother was a wise lady who was both worldly wise and had a way with children. Her mind was like a big database of information as she seemed to know everything. Her stories were like a heirloom of information and folklore.
The memory of those stories is like a treasure that I cherish and it would very much like to preserve till eternity.

my memory may fail but the stories need to be preserved

I am only human and it is quite likely that at some point I am forget all the stories.
I have considered writing them down in a diary. However in that case they would be confined to me.
Something’s change with time. For instance children no longer get to spend quality time with their grandparents.
Such story sessions are getting quite rare.
If in the future someone were to revive these story sessions between grand parents and their grandchildren then where would these stories come from?
One may argue that there are always options like the Amazon Kindle.

However in my opinion nothing replaces the story told by a grandparent to his or her grandchild.
It is the Great bonding exercise between 2 generations that are years apart.
For me those story sessions were never boring.
I could ask my grandmother repeat a particular story any number of times and every time it was sound fresh.
Small nuances would get added to the story line keeping it fresh and engaging.
Such was the magic of the stories told by my grandmother.

grandmother stories and the steemit opportunity

With steemit I see the opportunity to create a legacy where I can write down some of my own stories as well as those told by my grandmother.
This way these stories would stay alive and accessible for the generations to come.
So basically I would like to record folktales and stories of times gone by onto the steemit platform and by virtue of it being tied to an underlying blockchain it would preserve the content till eternity.

With this intent I had started writing down my stories.
I have published a couple of them on this blog of mine and here are the are links.
