Listening Is An Act of Love Reflection

The excerpt from Listening Is An Act of Love was absolutely heartwarming. It was astonishing to read how intimate the stories were and how easily people opened up. I was also surprised how often some participants returned to record. The story of the couple, Danny and Annie, brought me to tears and reminded me how moving a story can be. For someone who has a strong interest in history, it is great to know that the extraordinary stories of ordinary people will live on in their own voice. Through StoryCorps people will be able to learn more about their ancestors and what life was like for your average American.
