“I personally believe
that the writing of personal and family histories will do more to turn the
hearts of the children to the fathers and the fathers to children than almost
anything we can do. I am sure you will never turn your own children’s hearts
more to you than you will by keeping a journal and writing your personal
history. They will ultimately love to find out about your successes and your
failures and your peculiarities. It will tell them a lot about themselves, too.
They will get a great desire to raise a family of their own when they see what
a great blessing they were to you.”
– Hartman Rector, Jr, “Turning the Hearts,”
Ensign, April 1981.
