MY LIFE STORY

Every life
is a story.

The first attempt does not have to be impressive. Tell the story of something you finally allowed yourself to try.

Start with one memory: a joy, a loss, a regret, or a person you never want your family to forget. We help you shape it into a story in your own voice.

The Bowl That Would Not Stand Straight

At fifty-eight, I paid for a pottery class and told my family I was taking extra shifts. I was more afraid of being laughed at than of being tired.

I had spent most of my adult life being useful. I could mend a uniform, organize a move and make dinner out of an almost empty refrigerator. Wanting something simply because I wanted it felt harder to explain.

Read the full story

My first bowl collapsed twice. The instructor helped me center the clay, then left me to try again. The third version leaned so far to one side that I hid it in the cupboard after bringing it home.

My younger daughter found it while looking for a serving dish. When I admitted where it came from, she asked why I had not told her. I said I thought she would find it silly. She looked genuinely wounded that I had expected so little kindness from her.

She took the bowl to her apartment. I returned to class. Later, I began selling a few pieces at a neighborhood market, but I was already happy before anyone bought one. There was an hour each week that belonged to me, and I had stopped apologizing for it.

My daughter is recording my voice in the studio today. She wants the story of the crooked bowl for her little girl. Tell her I made better ones eventually. Tell her I still reach for that first one when I visit, careful to put the heavy fruit on the low side.

The memory behind itA crooked first bowl, still used at family meals.
