Is a coherent narrative ever the full story in this crazy world of ours? Or do our stories have to be fragmented for us to make sense of the pieces?lionofzionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16356448527363112598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1722936614494515596.post-1610550376972676862009-09-16T08:30:08.043-07:002009-09-16T08:30:08.043-07:00I think this is a good opportunity to look into so...I think this is a good opportunity to look into some of the historical gaps we try to fill in the "restorative" mode of thinking. In our family histories, even though we knew our grandparents and we heard their tales, we still have to search through the fragments to piece together a story. It may never be coherent or complete, but that's the nature of story. Can we really expect to have a coherent narrative of ourselves as a nation when so many stories are lost?Nicole*https://www.blogger.com/profile/02191346335959259277noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1722936614494515596.post-54092956879464107042009-09-15T12:30:35.009-07:002009-09-15T12:30:35.009-07:00Yes, I feel like we are missing so much from Juliu...Yes, I feel like we are missing so much from Julius and Ana Goldberg's lives. When I would ask Grandpa Art if they ever talked about Romania, he said that they didn't, because they didn't have good memories from there. I need to ask Aunt Julie to write down the stories that her mother managed to get from Ana. I do have a lace slip that belonged to Ana or one of her sisters.a.k.a.
