ASK THEM · GLIMPSES INTO LIVES YOU NEVER KNEW
"Who were my parents, before they were my parents?"
Every day, stories are lost simply because no one asked. Starting the conversation is easier than you think.

Start with five questions. See where they lead.

DOOR TWO
Start With What You Have
A photo. A letter. A painting that has been passed down through generations. The person who knows the story behind it may still be here – or the object may be all that remains.
Either way, the story is still there.

HOW THIS BEGAN
By Happenstance
I know this works because I did it. By Happenstance is the stories of who my parents were before they were my parents, and it started with a question.
