How can we start telling our family stories?

We can start by simply writing down our memories or experiences in a journal. Then, we can gradually share these written stories with close friends or family.

We can start by simply writing down our thoughts and experiences related to gender. Just jotting down how we felt when we faced gender - based discrimination or when we defied gender norms.

One way to start is by gathering family members together. Just pick a comfortable time and place, like a Sunday afternoon in the living room. Then, simply begin with the oldest family member present and ask them to share a memory from their childhood. It could be something as simple as their first day at school or a special holiday tradition from their youth.

We can start by setting the scene. Recall where you first met, like was it a sunny day at a coffee shop? Just start from the very beginning, the moment your eyes met or when you first exchanged words.

One way is to gather in a religious community. There, we can listen to the elders or the clergy who are well - versed in religious knowledge. They can guide us on how to begin, perhaps by sharing their own experiences of how they first started telling God's story. We can also start from our own personal experiences of faith, like how we felt God's presence in a difficult time, and build the story from there.

Just start from your own experiences. Think about the most memorable events in your life, like a trip or a special encounter, and begin to describe them.

We can use our creativity and unique perspectives. For example, think of an unusual way to start the story, like beginning from the end and then going back in time. It makes the story more engaging.

To start telling invisible stories, we should first be aware of our own biases and assumptions. Often, we overlook certain stories because they don't fit into our preconceived notions. Once we set those aside, we can start noticing the small details in our surroundings. It could be a faded photograph in a thrift store that has a story behind it. By asking questions about it or doing some research, we can start to tell that invisible story.

Well, you can start by observing the small things around you. For example, a little flower in the garden or a cat napping on the porch. Just pick one simple thing or moment and describe it simply. That's the beginning of telling a tiny story.

We can start by listening to women. Encourage them to share their experiences, whether it's in a family gathering, at work, or in a community event. Then, we can use different mediums like writing blogs, making short films, or creating podcasts to tell those stories.
