| Today is the birthday of Thomas Bulfinch, a renowned American mythologist. Many people have read and appreciated his writings, and his efforts have preserved ancient lore. My "Bulfinch Spell" is to honor his attempt to preserve knowledge that may have been lost forever. For this spell, you simply need to start a new journal recording things about your own life and family history. On the front page of the journal, write the word "Memories." Let your mind wander over the people in your life, and write down their habits, their recipes, their idiosyncrasies, and note how they have influenced your life. Try to preserve their personalities. Have yourself a Bulfinch Memory day. It could be important to future generations. |
